At her age and being female I would go ahead and swap her to a medium rat every other week if you buy in bulk, but if you just buy a few weeks at a time then small rats every week would be fine. Do not worry too much about the "slower" metabolism, at this stage she is going to start getting in some extra muscle that is going to burn some major fat. My 8ft adult female eats an xxl rat every two weeks.
