You meant 0.35, not 3.5, right? 0.35 is nowhere near a little much, even at her weight, if you ask me. "Ferrets, Rabbits and Rodents..." says up to 2 mg/kg twice a day. That's way more than what you're giving her and even though she's a bit less than a kilogram, you have room to go up. I've known ferrets getting much more than the 2 mg/kg.
