A little advice needed...

Ok first off I recently bought an adult normal columbian boa for what I thought was a really reasonable price since she was a little on the thin side to breed this year but I know I could fatten her up no problem by next year or even try to breed her late in the season. I brought home some large rats to feed her today and when I went to feed her she blew bubbles at me meaning its probably a RI. She doesnt wheeze or breath heavy at all and I keep her tank near 98 on the hot side.

My question is can taking away some humidity help cure this problem or should I take her to the vet? I havent even owned her more than a full week yet I just picked her up in chicago last weekend and drove her from there to saint louis.
