Are these trap shapes (twisted shapes) normal? Or is something wrong with the plant?

Some times they make deformed traps because of lack of humidity.

None of my plants have ever did that. That's pretty weird

I'm growing outside. (honestly I don't even pay attention to the humidity) I'll see what happens. I'm also wondering why the trap that's about to open is so arched.

I don’t see anything wrong. Sometimes traps will grow in twisted and straighten themselves out as they get larger.

The trap about to open should straighten out in a few days.

I don't see anything out of the ordinary. That is how the traps naturally open. Picture from FTS
