I recently got two ball pythons from a local shop, well, I just fed them adult mice, and they took them amazingly well, however one, ate the mouse like I've never seen before, and I have had many snakes throughout the last 5 years.

Now, I've seen them eat mice before backwards, many times, but i've never seen them take them from the tail first, I've normally see them just start at the body and the tail bends.
I found it rather funny.
Here is my other ball I got, he grabbed his mouse in a heartbeat.
