Eating backwards?

I really wasn't sure if this went here or in feeding (that looked more on the mice/rats/ what to feed); but I've never seen Crue do this & was curious if others have seen this.

I just finished her weekly feed (2 large mice - defrosted. Done with the Repti-Cal after 5 weeks) & with her second one she grabbed it on the hind leg & proceeded it eat it tail first!
Naturally I was nervous - because ALL the what ifs & she dragged it into her log to finish up. She's fine; looking for more because she's a pig like that. I'm going to dbl check with the vet on going back to sm. Rats with her appetite.

In all seriousness, how much do I need to play worried mom with her eating a mouse backwards? One other detail - a few drops of blood was coming out of its nose or mouth - was in the bag.

Thanks everyone on opinions.

Enclosed are photos of her looking for more food & curled up in the house.
