Yes its 100% normal. My burm did the same thing. Eventually they relize that its dead and there is no reason to constrict the prey. You can just srop it in front of him if you want to.

Yep some of mine do that.. I've stopped heating them up after they thawed for most of my bloods too, which is quite convenient.
