Hi,
I purchased my baby chick from a reputable store and now I was told that I have a baby turkey and she probably was in the batch of baby chickens by mistake. Since this is my first time dealing with chickens I have no clue. I did research this and found that turkeys have a little bump, which I do not see. Can someone help me out with this??

It's either a poult or a keet. I can't really tell under the red light. Size would most likely tell you which. Definitely not a chick.
 
Thank you. Here are a couple more pictures not under the red light. "She" is very small, still fits in the palm of a hand.
