feeding habits

[axwielding1]

I have a 26" Sumatran Yellow Blood Python.It took her 5 weeks to start feeding,at the time she was 16" and I think pretty young. To get her started, I put a drop of clean bacon fat on the mouse, and she took it right away. No strike, she sniffed and swallowed. Now, 4 months later, she eats a large mouse every 3-4 days for the most part, except during shed which takes+- 2 weeks from start to finish. My question is this: she's a butt sniffer! Ahe sniffs the mouse up and down, and when she gets to the but, she can't resist, and starts eating backwards!
I've tried to get it turned around but she won't have it! I'd say she eats 75% backwards! Does anyone have a butt sniffer like mine? She has no trouble getting it down, I even tried putting the bacon fat on the head only. I've been thinking about a small rat that she might feel better about going down properly.
I have always eaten my vegetables first to get them off my plate, maybe thats her theory? Or does she just like eating ***?
WTF?
