Hi! I'm a newbie here, but I think this is a question I can answer. 
Any type of meat has bacteria. Once they're thawed, the bacteria continues to reproduce and thrive, so placing them back in the freezer will slow the reproduction, but not stop it completely. A re-thaw will then introduce much more bacteria than you'd want to introduce to the gut. (any type of gut including yours, a snake, a fish, etc.) This goes for meat in general, not just feeder mice.
