You didn't mention how long your female is. I feed most of my full adults 500-700 grams 8 superworms every other day plus about one-two hornworms a week, to maintain their weight.

The web address above has a great weight comparison between bugs. 8 supers every other day is 28 supers a week which is the same weight as 50 crickets. Even not including the Hornworm or two you are feeding less. Plus 450 is pretty light unless she's small. My small adult females are 500 or a little more. My large females are 700 .
