Letting us know what are you currently feeding her and how often would be helpfull.. But, At at the risk of souning obvious. The best way to help your animal gain weight it to feed larger meals more often. For example, If your snake is eating one mouse one every 7 days... Bump her up to one large rat pup 2x per week and you will see the results you are looking for.

But, isn't it an issue to power feed. I was under the impression that powerfeeding is a no no simply because it causes too rapid of a growth rate and with that health problems from the increased growth rate.
