    F/T. I don't think I could do live unless her health was at risk. I was hoping for 5 days but the chart says 7 lol. I don't wanna overdo it and make her sick or something.

    Then stick with 7. That’s how often I offer mine and he has gained weight nicely thus far.

    I would stick to weekly feedings of appropriately sized prey.

    She'll start packing on the grams now that she's in good hands and eating proper meals. Don't worry. You'll have a healthier snake if you don't rush her growth.
