No you don't need to take the snake to a vet. Whole bodied lizards CAN transfer parasites. But remember all w/c snakes have them. There is a chance you don't have any or that the snake simply flushed them out. You will not need to get the snake to a vet unless it has:
smelly runny stools
regures meals
Just cut open the belly of a lizard and place the whole fuzzy inside the body cavity of the lizard and then offer the mouse to the snake. Don't worry about any vet trips.
This is alo the time of year most kingsnakes tend to shut down from feeding. Have you considered cooling him? That is what i would do. Most finicky feeders will come out eating anything that remotely even looks like food. ----- ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒE!
