Should I be worried?

So I fed my Avic a mealworm around 2-3 days ago, which it finished eating by the time I got home the next day, I haven't noticed anything wrong the past few days. But when I got home I saw it like this, and my first thought is molting, but 5 mins later it moved to a different position and looked perfectly normal. I looked for any issues such as mites underneath near the mouth and joints and didn't see any issues. Any ideas?

Here is the first picture I took.

Here I tried to get a bit closer.

Thanks. That makes me feel a lot better. Honestly I was getting a little excited about a possible molt. My G pulchripes molted Sunday night and my GBB on Monday night. Thought I might be getting a third but was concerned since it didn't show any signs of pre-molt.
