Ruby looks fine proportion wise.
How much and how often are you feeding her? Either feed a little more every other day or a bit less every day. I know it's tempting to top their bowls up, I have the same issue with my robo. All gets pouched within seconds. Hams do tend to leave some of the Burgess but the Bunny is an improvement. Just supplement with some shrimp/mealworms/occasional cricket.
Some robos just aren't that into food really, although I'm sure it's a worry when Crumble is a greedy little thing in comparison. 37g is quite normal so no need to worry there.
