Double the length from one side to the middle!
:D
But every corn will vary, depending on how well they've been fed etc
There may be general guidelines as to what the average is.. But there is no norm on each one
^^

1.0.0 Border Collie - 'Chance'
1.0.0 Bearded Dragon - 'Alfie'
0.1.0 Tortoise - 'Lightning'
1.0.0 Brazilian Rainbow Boa - 'Charlie'

Have you tried to maybe give her a couple of tiny rats??
They're much higher in fat content than mice, so will help her to put weight on quicker.
Either that, or if her thickness looks ok, try her on 1 or 2 of the next size up mice.

If she is eating fine then I wouldnt really be looking to fatten her up. She will grow at her own rate.
