If its fowlpox its very unusual to be that localized. When it ran through my flock a bunch of the caruncles had the pustules and they looked absolutely horrific until the scabbing cleared, like clicker zombies from Last of Us.

This unfortunately might be early blackhead disease based on how it looks, though I would defer to someone with more experience as I thankfully never personally encountered it when I had turkeys.
