We've had turkeys for 43 years and this has worked for me: Put a piece of tape on the good leg (you may have to experiment to find the right kind of tape), turn the bad leg until it's straight, leaving natural space between them. Attach the tape to the bad leg. Both legs should be facing forward. Keep an eye on it to make sure the turkey can walk or hop to get food and water. Take the tape off in a few days to check the progress. You may need to retape it. From my experience, the turkey should be able to use its leg.
