Yes, it's normal. Most people think the reason they do it is to loosen the shed around their eyes, but I saw my newborn hatchlings doing it too. Whatever the reason, it's ok...just freaky

It seems to be perfectly normal. My babies seem to do it more often when they are full and basking. I have seen a half-grown BD doing it, but it seems to happen less often as they get bigger. It still looks odd to me even after seeing it almost daily! I am waiting to hear a POP and see some eyeballs rolling around on the cage floor. I will snap a pic of one doing it next time I see it.
