Females have smaller humps, but they do have them.

The hump is something that grows all their lives and the only thing you need is patience, because it takes a while to form - unless your FH is already a few years old, I wouldn't worry. Feed a well rounded diet like you are and keep the water nice and clean. Now that you have that 'humpy' food, you may as well mix it into the diet, but in the future note that those products really are not necessary. A lot of people don't realize fish are along term hobby, especially when dealing with large, longe lived fish.
