Is this bad?

So last time I fed my baby corn snake she attempted to constrict and then eat this time she just starting eating and the mouse was 100% alive. She got it down so I assume it's okay but just thought I'd check?

Oh and here have a pic

I would say that most baby corn snakes do not constrict their food, is that your concern? And if she got it down, I wouldn't be worried.

Personally, I wouldn't be feeding live, but that is another discussion!
 
My adult corn Jax doesn't constrict his food when he eats (is fed f/t). So I wouldn't be concerned about that.
 
When I didn't know about all the risks and I fed live, none of my snakes constricted until they were on hoppers. I would switch to f/t now.
