let's take a step back and look at the anatomy of a snake:
she should be able to eat fine unless she has a deformity like a kink in her neck or body that would prevent her from swallowing or passing prey or if she has a shark mouth, etc.
the issue is her locating or recognizing prey/food. it seems her short tongue is preventing her from gathering info on her surroundings. snakes use their tongues to gather scents which they feed to their jacob's organ. w/ her short tongue, she cannot flick it to gather enough scents and info esp. on her prey/food item.
but BP's have an evolutionary characteristic that helps them locate prey in another way - using their heat pits to locate prey/food via heat signature. is this enough for your BP locate it's food? i dunno but i hope so.
i haven't read your other thread and so i have to ask about her enclosure and husbandry. is everything fine in this department? could she just be an off feed bb? she had to have reached 104grams somehow. i would try Deb's method for a troubled feeder bb to the T: https://ball-pythons.net/forums/show...-hatchling-101
good luck and keep us updated.
