Is she like this when you are holding her or just when she is in her enclosure?

I ask because we had one boa that we purchased, that ended up having a degenerative spinal condition that would relax completely when in her enclosure to relieve the pain. She appeared flat and mushy when in her house, but when moved would get very stiff.

We ended up putting her down after trying a couple different treatments, none of which helped.

Have you had her to a vet for x-rays yet?
