Two 25 gram mice would be quite a bit for a 90 gram animal. You could try putting her on an accelerated feeding schedule and feed her about every four days until she can handle larger prey items. Like Godzilla said, it's amazing the size of prey they can swallow. Think about in the wild when you see African Rock pythons who have just eaten a gazelle, or anacondas who will take down a fullgrown capybara or small tapir. The only concern with giving her a larger mouse would be that mice near grown can be rather aggressive and you don't want you animal injured. You can always try prekilling it though which would perhaps get you on your way to being able to use frozen thawed. Then you could order what ever you want online. Best of luck.
