Feeding - how much

Augie is 650grams and looks underweight. TRR told me that he came in a month ago underweight. They were feeding him small rat every 2 weeks. Should I continue with small rats or full size mouse?

Thanks to every one here you all are really helpful.

How long is he? I'd say for an adult 5' corn snake 550-750 would be a healthy range of weight, which 650 is well within.

Could you post pictures of him? Or explain why you think he looks underweight?

Adult mice are perfectly fine for feeding adult corns.
 
Looks perfectly healthy to me. If you want to fatten up a bit, but still keep healthy, I put my males at that size on a 10day feeding cycle.
