Over the years I've had a few large female Peru boas that would really go for Guinea pigs, especially pre-ovulation. I decided that giving them a couple of big Guinea pigs actually was helping prepare them for breeding.. can't say for sure from such a small sample whether there is anything to it.. but it might be worth a try.

I'll say this, I've seen a few big old Guinea pigs that were butter-fat! so I'm not sure if they are necessarily a low-fat food.
.
Hope that helps.
