Anyone ever have a turkey with dandruff?

Our first little poult ever is leaving little flakes whenever she sits and preens herself. She doesn't seem to have issues otherwise. Is this normal? What might it be if not? Thank you.

All my 6 baby's did the same thing. They are a bit over 2 months now they don't seem to have dandruff anymore. So im going to say it's part of them growing up. I'm not sure if it's there skin or it's from there feathers coming in.

I looked it up and it's from there feathers coming in.

Pin Feathers​

"Your bird grows feathers similar to the way you grow hair -- more arrive to replace those that have fallen out. However, they typically appear first as thin, hard sheaths near the skin. The feather is maturing inside this sheath, called a pin feather. Although some birds are certainly divas when it comes to their looks, pin feathers are one reason your bird often pecks and pulls at his feathers; he's trying to break through the sheaths to allow the soft feather material to appear. The tiny, broken sheath pieces tend to hang around on your bird's skin or in his feathers for a few days, resembling dandruff."
