You said her previous owner fed her 2 hoppers a week, and she still fits in a deli cup? Why would you want to cut back on her food, then? She doesn’t look obese? Just keep track of her weight, and as long as she is continuing to grow while staying relatively slim, you (and she) will be fine. If you want to feed her less often, she looks like she could handle small mice. So maybe feed her one small mouse every 10 to 14 days.
