My 7 foot Retic eats 3-5 pound rabbits, but every snake is different.

My retic about 6 feet eats jumbo rats every week, but could do larger, and she has eaten mice too whenever my ball refuses to eat (f/t). It depends on how fast you want them to grow and how much you want to feed them- it sounds like you're feeding enough.
