Breech Feeding...

My baby corn (Medusa) is eating well but what concerns me is that she has ate 2 pinkies already which she swallowed breech style (tail end first). She looks to have trouble swollowing and last time she swollowed breech style she regurgitated. Last night she swollowed breech again. Does anyone know if this increaces the likely hood of a regurgitation or if it is otherwise bad or harmful for the snake?
 
I have about 50% that eat from the "other side of the table" ;)

It doesn't seem to present much of a problem. Are you feeding f/t or live??
 
The first couple of time that my snake ate, he grabbed the f/t pinkie in the middle. After a few minutes, he would eat it butt first. Now he's figured it out and his last few meals have been "the right way". I don't think it'll hurt if the snake eats 'em bacwards and hopefully it'll figure out that there's another way to do it.
