feeding spotted python

[freshgreg]

Hi
I rehomed a spotted python in March this year. He was around 2 years old and was about 60cm long and weighed 113g. I've been feeding him weaner mice once a week and he's a great feeder. He is now 85cm long and 200g and still looks for food, so I think he's ready to up size. Question is, whether to go up to an adult mouse or hopper rat? People have said to go the rat as it has better nutrition than a mouse. Asking for suggestions.
Thanks!
