I think one of my turkey hens may have bumble foot. Her feet look puffy, and she doesn't get on the roost like the others. The problem is, she's so big, it's hard to get her in a position to see
 
Can you take some pictures of her legs and feet while she is awake, and look for a scab on her footpads after she sleeps? She might have something else going on but bumble foot is pretty common. Mycoplasma synovitis or other joint infections are possible. Gout is another issue in poultry that can make feet look swollen.
