I agree, she looks to be of a pretty good size. Try out small rats first, and see how that goes. You should also try to feed her once a week, that should put a bit more weight on her.

She looks very beautiful!

I would also say try to find a new bedding, or just use paper towels. I think if you use paper towels you will definitely need a thermostat as the UTH could cause a burn with the substrate being so thin. They tend to get very hot! I measured mine without a Tstat one day and it was 114 degrees! So a thermostat is a necessity!

This is the bedding I use for ball python rack...

It holds humidity well and is white! So it's very easy to spot clean as you just have to look for anything that's not white.
