There is no way that is a turkey poult. It is a chicken chick. Probably a game type or game mix chick. It should be with its mom, but they are more independent then domestic type breeds and do a lot of foraging.. It should be kept safe with food and water. It might have been grabbed by a predator then dropped near his house.....

That is some sort of chicken... or a Chocobo, whichever. No way is that a turkey. It has more chance of being a Chocobo than being a turkey. And THAT would be super cool. (want)

It looks like an easter egger chick to me, they have blue legs. Its probably at that awkward "teenage" stage they look really weird during that time.

If it is a chicken, should I tell my friend to try and catch it and give it some food?

my first thought was maybe it's a buzzard chick. that's a creepy little thing. Maybe you should put some food and water and give it a place to stay so it can grow up then you'll definitely know what it is!
