Emergency...suspected thrush/ Canker...copper sulphate??

Pics
FWIW, I've had them die on Friday and for one reason or another (too cheap, too lazy, etc) didn't ship until Tuesday for Wednesday delivery. Not saying it's the ideal way to do it, but that's what happened with one of mine and they were able to do the necropsy just fine.

Gotta have a vets referral? Good grief, that's nonsense.
It never made much sense to me...but I know a vet that will give a referral without seeing the bird, so we don't have to pay the vet at least. In fact, I know at least three vets that would do that. It's just a an extra step that's a pain.
 
White in color lesions would indicate thrush. I've never dealt with it. Canker is yellowish or necrotic looking with a foul odor. Birds infected w/ canker are carriers for life.
Sorry for super late reply but what does this look like thrush or canker it’s yellow she has had for a bit over a week almost two since I saw the bit on the side first thinking it was food stuck. No smell coming from it.

Wet pox also smells and according to Dawg53, so does canker ( I think he said it does, but you should ask him). I had one that had a secondary yeast infection (confirmed by UC Davis necropsy), but it didn't smell, nor did I see any lesions... not saying it doesn't smell, just saying that with mine I didn't notice anything abnormal.

Does it look like this?

Hello sorry for disturbing, and yes I’m really late to this thread but was wondering is this thrush or canker. She’s had it for over a week started with the one bit on the right since I thought it was food stuck. It isn’t pox since they have been vaccinated 6 months ago in the wing. No smell, no lethargicness, acting normal. Thanks in advance. No other chickens seem to have it

Don’t think they have made contact with other birds the closest they have been to one was one perching near their fence.
