Respiratory Infections are contagious big time. They are not air born so you dont need to evacuate your snake room however I would certainly not house her with other snakes if youre suspicious that she has a cold. It is a contact virus.
I read the other feedbacks and your comfirmation that she is in shed. I agree that occasionaly a boa may exibit the popping noise prior to shedding but if shes opening her mouth to breath or slobbering every where you have a situation that requires you immediate attention so just be cautious and as prepared as you can. Hopefuly a little warmth will do the trick. Alot of the time it does, especialy with a smaller animal. ----- And God said to Noah,"Let there be plenty of room for the serpents".
