I'd still be feeding every 7 days until 800g in the routine I follow.

Also, rat weaners vary significantly in size, are you weighing them at all?

At 700g you're looking for a 70-80g rat, he'll put weight on, don't worry

It depends what your local shop names things and how you decide when a weaner is a rat etc.
