The stomach doesn't care. 
All 7 of my snakes have done this as well.
The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

Yes he will be ok. Besides their is little you can do about it. He seems to have everything under control.

he'll learn. I've found many snakes, not just BPs, do this when moving up in prey size. no harm done, either they get it down or they don't. looks like your guy did.
