According to the recent "Nature" on crows it says "A group of crows 
is called a "murder." This name came about because a group of crows 
will sometimes kill a dying crow"

But considering that turkeys can be somewhat assertive when in a 
large group ( or at least they are at my sisters house) a bully of 
turkeys might be appropriate, but the proper noun of multitude for 
turkeys is a RAFTER.
