So I'm going to stick with mice for a bit to make up for lost time, and hopefully make weigh by November. Shes 900 g right now, so how much do I feed her?
I would NOT suggest trying to Power Feed her just to "Make Weight". Feed her consistently and breed her next Season.

Snakes grow at the rate they grow don't over feed her just stick with 10-15% rule of thumb. Royals tend to imprint on prey they will feed others but some convert with difficulty. Get her feeding that is important after a good while like november if she is still feeding easily on mice then try a mouse smaller than norman and fuzzy rat and see if she will take it. I have one that seems intimidated by rats or something mice no problem and small rats no problem but at 10% for get it. I give him 5 or 6% but weekly rather than every two weeks.
