Feeding Frequency for Non-Breeding Female?

According to the Munson plan,

"Adult females are fed more frequently than adult males (especially following brumation). Adult females are fed every 7-12 days; adult males are fed every 11-14 days."

Does the 7-12 feeding frequency also apply to non-breeding adult females? If not, what is the general feeding schedule for non-breeding adult females? Thanks.

For a full grown female every 10 to 15 days is good. Just watch to make sure she does not become over weight.
 
As long as they're a good weight and healthy, my non-breeding females are on the same feeding regime as my males - one large mouse every two weeks spring to autumn, one large mouse every three weeks during the winter.
