I bought a new 64GB 5th Generation iPod Touch about 2 months ago. I've loaded about 20GB on it and only check emailand play music. After about 6 hours after a full charge I get a message that the battery is low and needs to be charged. IS THIS NORMAL???

iPod touch (5th generation) - Technical Specifications
The specs say up to 40 hours when fully charged. Now my personal experience is, now that I play a game regularly, I'm charging my iPod pretty much every night
You may want to poke around and see what else is running. For example notifications. A lot of stuff defaults to on that you may not need. (such as stocks and weather). Look to background app refresh and background app update. They can be running and run your battery down while you don't even realize they're running.
If turning stuff off doesn't help then, given that your device is a couple of months old, I'd make an appointment at an apple store and have them check it out.
