She is only a runt for lack of food. Feeding once a week is pretty standard, unless you are feeding relatively large meals. At two years old, your BP should be feeding on larger prey items than rat pups. Do you not have access to larger sized rodents?

Yes, every 5-7 days feed her a rat that's as wide as she is. They should be bigger than rat crawlers by now. All my one year old snakes are eating small adult rats by now.
Edit: You beat me to it.
