Help! My Sorority Needs Jenny Craig!

I have 4 girlies in my 20 gallon. They are ravenous piggies! I feed them a diet of frozen (thawed) bloodworms, mosquito larvae, daphnia, Hikari gold pellets, or Betta Bites. The Betta bites are very small - I'm not sure how much to give them, 4 each just isn't enough and you know how that is - the more feisty ones get to them first. So now they are diving on the flakes for my other fishies, and hogging up the zucchini that used to be just for my cories and ghosties. Geez! I've had them a month now, and just noticed they are getting too FAT! Almost like little blimps, I'm worried - I skip a day occasionally, but then they're on the zucchini. They truly act like they are starving. Not sure what to do. I know everyone says 4 or 5 pellets, but the betta bites are very small - like mini pellets - do you think 4 or 5 of them are enough per girl? Thx!

I think they are just developing eggs
