I believe she looks to be minimum 2.5 - 3.5 years old, and so she is without a doubt more than sexually mature.



These are Central Americans Dwarfs, not Colombians... they don't need the length or weight we are accustomed to hearing with colombians, which is also exagerated in most cases.



IMHO, one of the best boa breeders out there, and by far one of the best for Central American and Insular subspecies, would be Gus Rentfro, Rio Bravo Reptiles. He's successfully bred sexually mature central american ssp.'s at under 3' several times. I think some lengths were around 28", 34", 38"...etc.



Check out his site, I believe it has more to do with maturity and not size or weight.
