now i dont have any experience to back this up but ...

i think the male would only be able to breed himself to death if he were 'allowed' to breed himself to death. that is, if he were left in with a female for that long. i am assuming that for a snake to be bred to death, it would have to exhaust all energy stores. if you give a 'mandatory' break from breeding, by removing the male from any females and giving him a meal or two, i would think there should be nothing to worry about.

good luck with them. in my eyes i feel that as long as the male is not attempting to breed like seven females in a row and is given time to recover and replenish energy stores, everything should be fine.
