When to switch to rats

I have a year and a half old bci male. He is eating three adult mice every 6-7 days and completeley digesting them in about 36-48 hours. He rarely shows a lump after eating and is about 3 feet long. Even the smallest small rats look a little big to me. I dont have a doubt that he could easily kill one and eat one, but I dont want to feed him something too large that could cause problems.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
These pictures are from today after eating three mice.
