Does anyone know where I can purchase a good turkey fan mount kit?
There are plenty of kits out there both on-line and in stores. Some in-line kits offer the ability to attach or even etch a photo onto the plaque. If you run a google search and look for taxidermy companies - you can find some interesting alternatives.
The biggest "trick" is to make sure you spread out the fan and dry / cure it properly.
I've been looking at the ones from Walnut Hollow Country, site says send a picture and info to be etched into a plaque and they'll take care of the rest.
I do a variety of mounting plaques (DIY's), do some custom work as well as engraving. Check out my page on FB, if interested shoot me a message.

Very nice! You are an artist.
Been using the Walnut Hollow Country display kit to document my journey toward a Super Slam. (Turkey Mount Kit, Oak #046308402368). Been very happy with them! Very easy to use. I get 'em from Cabelas.
I found an artist on Etsy who makes wooden puzzles and had him make me each state in 1/8" thick black walnut and I glue those on the center as I check a state off. Problem is I am about to run out of wall space in my bedroom!
Here are a couple examples of what it looks like, maybe it will give you some ideas to do your own thing!

I like the bottom one in first pic. Did you buy that? Or make it?

How do you get the feet dried out so good.

Here's a screen shot of the gentlemen on OG that I purchased that one from back in 2016. I don't know if he's still active on here or not but I love the barn wood look to it. The turkey feet I normally just stand up against something solid and then add some weight to keep them in the position I want until they dry which normally takes about 4-6 weeks. Hope this helps.
