Yep, Just let the last 3 feet of her body hang, but only for a maximum of 5 seconds.

It's actually easier that you might think. Even a strong boa can be held for 5 seconds. Also unless she's a "mean" boa, you shouldn't restrain her by holding her head. Boas tend to "tense up" when you hold them near the head. Just let her tail hang and gravity will let you know if she's got something in her.
