I think that you maybe have a retained shed. When you said she feels as if she has a cast on her, it made me think that this is a problem. You need to soak her overnight. You need to put her in a tupperware or plastic butter dish, with small holes cut in the top for ventilation. Put her in the container, and add 85 degree water, filling it til it comes half-way up her side.(not the side of the container) Then wet a wash rag and put the wet rag on her, leaving her head out. She will probably pull her head under, and it is ok as long as it is her choice. Then, put the lid on the container, and put the container in her snake cage, making sure it is not on a heated area. With any luck, you will be greeted in the morning with a full shed. Let us know how she does.
After she sheds, I would feed her a hopper mouse.
And, welcome to the wonderful world of BOA....best of all
