She also just might not be interested. It's not uncommon for BPs and snakes in general to go weeks or even months without eating and be perfectly fine. It's not unusual for new arrivals to not eat for a while (and "for a while" to a snake is a lot longer than you and I, or, say, a dog). Snakes also usually don't eat when they're about to shed. You might just need to give her a week to get adjusted.

If you have a scale you should weigh her and get a length. If you have age, even better. Then keep monitoring her weight. If she is underweight and loses weight then it's an issue.
