    You don't need to do anything special to get her up to size, just feed her appropriately sized meals on a regular basis; she'll start putting on weight consistently. A lot of people do 5 or 7 day schedules, and either will work. Pick whatever is convenient for you. If you can rotate feeding days easily and want to do a 5 day schedule do that. If feeding on a specific day works better for you, do 7 days.

    As long as you're getting decent meals into her on a regular basis she'll put on weight for you.
    It is okay to use pine bedding for snakes.
