Is this...Normal?

Okay I know I should probably put this in diseases but he's healthy otherwise...

Akira's been coloring up on his face where he has some scales becoming ice blue on him and now on occasion he will stretch out his mouth like he's puckering his 'lips' and open his mouth a little then retract it. It happens in an instant it's like he's yawning. Is this normal for betta fish?

Mine do that all the time. It's nothing to worry about.
