I use the chick vaccine per firststatevetsupply's recommendation and do it twice, it's easier on your birds. More work for you, but I have found it gives better immunity and isn't rough on them. You need to vaccinate quickly before others break out with it. Your turken has a pretty bad case of it. Poor girl. I'd put her on an antibiotic so a secondary infection doesn't set in. Do not give the others medication because it will mess up the vaccine's take.
The sores are the pox virus coming out of her body. When you call to order your vaccine ask what to put on her sores. Or if you have knowledge of healing, I'd put something drying on her pox wounds. Feed, water, treat her last, then change, and shower. I'd put bags on my shoes too. She needs a supportive hospital type situation for a bird in quarantine. This virus can be mild and pass thru flocks mildly or be virulent like the sores she has and wipe out flocks. Nothing to mess with. Please keep us posted, ok?
