Hey Kyle. I know that just b/c you are a newbie on this site, it does not mean you are new to keeping reptiles, but I am going on that presumption so I'm just trying to cover all the bases.
If you have not had large boids they sometimes exhale (it can be rather loud) and I have heard people mistake this for hissing. Of course, if you have owned or been around large boids much you know that a giant snake hissing is not something you can possibly mistake! [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]
I have some boas that hiss and don't bite, have never bitten and may never bite. Then there are some in my collection that warn you about half a second before they bite the crap out of you. LOL There are variations from one end of that scale to the other. I don't think you should put the boa up immediatly but you may want to do so reasonably soon after that (5 mins?).
I agree with Bry...she will eventually learn to trust you, however, it's also important to remember that she is a wild animal and no matter how much you trust her, she always will be.
I hope this helps!
