Curious to know what my snake is doing..

[Kaorte]

Do you know how much the snake weighs? I normally feed 10-15% of the snakes body weight in rats/mice once a week.

Husbandry looks fine from here so I don't think that is the issue.

If you are feeding him enough it could just be that time of year.

I weighed him 2 days ago and he is 516g's right now.

I would start feeding him 3 mice or a rat weanling/small rat.

I don't think you mentioned, how many mice are you feeding him per week?

[mainbutter]

516gs is certainly time to upgrade to sm rats, though this is not necessarily why your snake is out and about.

[Immy]

I feed him 1 large mouse once every week.

[Kaorte]

I feed him 1 large mouse once every week.

Yeah, its time to upgrade. 1 mouse is okay for up to 200-300g. After that you should move to two mice or small rats.

How big should the mice be when I do feed him two?

Large mice are fine. I would feed him two for the next couple feedings and then go to rats if you can.
