Interesting, I dont know much about hens but they might just grow slower than marbles. My male marble is the fastest growing ray I own.

I think that it should growing faster...but dont know why it doesn't..

Best way I can explain from my experience it's growth speerts same as kids.
You will get nervous because they are not growing and then they will put on an inch in less then a month

I wouldn't concern yourself about it too much as long as she's eating well. I've found female rays explode in size once they start breeding. Beautiful hen you have
