Question on females vields

[gennifairy]

Hi, first of all. I am new.

I have a 4-5 month old (estimate) female vield/yemen that I just adopted. She does have a Vit A defincey, which is how I came to adopt her in the first place. She gets dusted and vit drops.... I have only had her since Black Friday of 2014. So about 3 weeks give or take.

Her staple food atm is:
Collard greens, dandelion greens, and a staple of phoenix/repti/calciworms.

Her temp ranges between 90-97 degrees F.

Shes active, eats well, so on. She gets misted 2-3 times daily and has a drip system in place.

My question is this: I have been reading that I should 'cut back' food and lower the temp of my girl to help slow down/reduce egg laying so she doesnt get all bound up. Is this true?

Is she to young to start this with? Here is a picture I took of her today, while she was eating her greens.

Don't cut back until healthy. That girl NEEDS A SANDWICH NOW! Get her some crix, hornworms, and silks to gain some weight. That is the first ethiopian veil I have seen. She is WAY underweight.

I feed her every day. She came to me that way. Shes actually thicker then she was before I got her 3 weeks ago. She eats about 25-30 phoenix worms every day plus all the greens I put in there...

I dont do crickets because she has an eye issue and cant hunt. Not sure what else to feed her.... I dont want to try wax worms, at all. They can become to addicting. Her poops are big and healthy.

I was informed that they generally look super skinny and boney when young... was I wrong informed? =(

Here is a different picture of her from today. Where she isnt streching out... for comparison.
