I have a turkey about 1 month old that started to develop what seemed like a wart beside his eye about a week ago. I didn't think much of it until it started to get bigger. Then the brother started to develop one also and they both started getting sores on their beaks. I started them on a Terramycin Solution 3 days ago and today they are worse than ever. One has started developing sores on his wing tip and they both have bleeding from the sores. Can someone please give me an idea of what this might be and what to do about it? I have other chicken chicks that I'm afraid to put with them since this appears to be contagious. These pictures were taken this morning. They are outside in a pen I separated from other chickens and geese. They are eating starter/grower. They are both eating and drinking fine
