Most turkeys you need to teach to eat. Stick it's face in the food and water. Also, keep it away from stressful things like white artificial lighting and housepets. keep it under a red heat lamp at about 90-95 degrees Fahrenheit (on the floor).

Can also try meal worms &/or live moths (if it's warm enough for those at your location) one wing held between your fingers and the other fluttering in front of the poult.
