I've had snakes regurge after very large prey animals, but rarely to never after several smaller ones even if they were the same total weight. Like my male king rat (I still need to name him, he's too awesome to not have a name). He regurged the first time I fed him an adult mouse but handled 4-5 hoppers pretty easily (and ravenously).

I've started to, with the exception of my retics, feed mostly smaller animals even if I go with 2-3 of them...it seems to work well. The retics I *may* start doing that with next time I order rabbits, but right now all I got are big rabbits so that's what they'll get the next month or two.
