She may be gaining weight as opposed to length. Length is not a very good judge of growth rate in animals. Try weighing her instead.

85 g. is not bad for a young adult female Tokay. Definitely breedable at that weight. While I have females well above 100 g., my breeding female leucistic has never been heavier than yours is now. Some females are just small.

28 cm is a good size for an adult female. No reason to worry.

Best
