Thank you.  Where can I get the vaccine and I do have her separated.

The large lump on her right is her crop. When she eats her food goes to her crop for the first stage of her digestion.  Your chicken looks like she has a severe case of fowl pox. It's contagious to other chickens thru her; it will spread chicken to chicken. Plus mosquitoes can bite the turken and spread it to your other chickens. I'd get your other chickens vaccinated right away and the turken separate buildings asap. House birds need to be vaccinated too. I'd use the chick vaccine and vaccinate twice.
