I always go by the calculator first, then "feed to condition" (meaning, feed more/less than the recommendation based on the way the body feels to you). If you want her to gain weight, you could feed 1.5 nuggets per day...? Marcel is 3lbs and I give him about 2.3 oz per day (so, a little over 2 "nuggets") and his body is slim, but nice and solid....he likes to maintain his athletic cut .
