If she's a well-fed girl, then I wouldn't worry too much. As for feeding live: No.. it's definetely not worth the risk at all, especially if she's been on dead for quite sometime. Though naturally, a snake's instinct shouldn't go away, there could be the chance she's a bit rusty..
She'll eat when she's ready to, unless she starts rapidly losing weight in a short period of time, there's probably not too much to get too worried over..
