I wouldn't say it was abnormal. You might want to see if you can get a little piece of stick to lean up against it for the ants to climb up.

Slippery plastic is not what the ants feet were made to climb.
I suggest a stick, popsicle stick, straw cut length-wise in half or just using a plain old bottle cap or stone as a feeding area.
