How long does it take for sexual maturity?

As the title says, how long does it take for Columbian rainbow boas to get to sexual maturity (at what age) and at what weight is the minimum for breeding females? I am interested in perhaps breeding my female Cecil in the future.

Around 4 years and 1200-1400 grams.

Thanks couldn't find any quick info on those details. She has a long way to go. Do you have any suggestions as to live bearers that could easily bred? Rosy boas are live bearers right? I'd be interested in them a little.

Any species of boa will bear live young, pythons and most colubrids are egg layers, though garter snakes also bear live.
