Two reasons that I can not advise trying to breed her.
-- I am a firm believer in quarantine Boas for a minimum of three months (and that's a short time). This reduces the risk of your collection possible catching something from a new animal.
-- Every Boa brought to a new place needs time to acclimate, and get used to its new home. Adults even more-so than young ones. They tend to stress more as adults when they are transfered, and often cause food refusals, shyness, or aggresion.
Every Boa, or snake manual will tell you this. Short cuts never pay off in the long run. Do them a favor and wait.
