feeding my horned frog

Some of you might have seen the thread earlier about when I got my lovely horned frog. I'm still over the moon that I have him, he has almost doubled in size already without looking overly fat. He's so great
Now I was wondering something and thought some of you might have an answer to this. When I have fed him (small grasshopper, silkworm, sometimes a pinkie), it seems his belly bulges out a bit, but only on one side, mostly the right. Is this normal? Just wondering...
Any answer would be appreciated.
thanks

I'm pretty sure it's normal. All of our frogs do that too. I think they're pushing the food around in their stomach to make room for more. It looks funny though, lol. Sometimes you can see a mouse nose sticking out the side of the frog.

Thank you so much for answering! Last time I fed him a grasshopper, I clearly saw one of the legs sticking out. He was pushing his belly with his hind legs for quite a while, until it wasn't sticking out anymore. I was really starting to get worried here.
