Really now, Pat.. in the 4 years I've been feeding multiple live mice to my snakes, I've never had a snake pass an undigested mouse. They eat multiple live rodents in the wild, and thrive just fine there. And no, there's no "could" about it. Now, too big of prey and insufficient temperatures can cause the prey to rot from the inside out, which, if not regurgitated, will cause death in the snake.

At 650, 2 medium adult mice a week, is fine, especially for a male. If you want to feed him more than that, go ahead, but prepare for a fast. Even my adult males, 1000g plus, don't get more than 2 mice a week, sometimes less. If mice are easy for you to obtain, and the snake readily eats them, keep doing what you're doing. No need to fix what ain't broke.
