How much (roughly) would you expect a 10 month old (hatched end of July 23), approximately 18 inch long bp to weigh?

Someone commented on my post a couple of days ago saying my little girl, Lilith looked underweight. I wanted to get a few more opinions, though I'm inclined to agree (however she is my first bp and I've only had her almost 3 weeks, so I'm hardly an expert).

The breeder told me she was 10 inches long and 106g a couple of days before I collected her on the 23rd. He did mention he'd been giving her too small meals because he didn't see the point in buying a different size just for her.

I fed her a week after bringing her home, and weighed her 5 days after that, and she was 96g (so guessing she was a few g lighter before her first meal with me - didn't think to weigh her before feeding her the first time). When I weighed her on Saturday she was up to 102g, and she ate again last night.

Luckily she's an enthusiastic eater. Her first two meals were 11g (smallest in the pack), but last night's (and all the others in the pack of 10) was 14g. Once she's gained enough weight/size I've got another pack of 10 weighing 23g each ready to go.
