I posted the "formula hygiene" as not following these guidelines those can cause of bloat and digestive issues.

Are you using plain bottled water or tap water to mix up the formula?

Is she getting any rodent block or other solids?

If you are using the powered Esbilac it should be mixed full strength 2 water to 1 powder. It does not need to be diluted beyond that.
