Leg issues

It is definitely bruised. That is confirmed by the green color. What caused what looks like perosis may have been due to the flopping around but it won't fix itself on its own. The hock shouldn't be that enlarged.
There was a lot of fluid in there. The whole leg looks swollen from it usually is. We just had a rooster flopping while recovering from a heat stroke. The signs were the same almost. The roosters head went back and then he lost strength in his legs for 2 days. This turkey had a weird look in its eyes and then seemed like leg strength was going. I bought it in to cool off but it flopped so much for 2 days that now I'm wondering if it bruised them so bad it caused fluid to build up and swelled. It seems like it feels better after squeezing the fluid out and put its foot down flat for the first time in almost a week.
