Switch her to small rats and feed her every 4-5 days.
She'll grow.

My first season I traded a female pastel to a friend. (4 years ago).
I got her back last October and she was 500 grams. (Yeah...)

I weighed her yesterday...and she's 1750 grams. All I did was feed her whenever she wanted to eat. (Which is pretty much all the time, so I made sure it was at least 4 days after her last meal).

You should be able to get her up to size for next season easily.
