Re: How long...
I'm not sure but I think it's 3-4 years.
Stephan or someone else will be able to get you a specific answer.

Re: How long...
It can be a lot sooner in under two years, but this is when power feed. Power feeding just lead to a shorter life span for snake. Plus if breed to young even if they are of size it can lead to a very small clutch and a lot of slugs.

Re: How long...
superdwarf is your answer, dwarfs and mainlands (and sulawesi's) can and should take rabbits once full grown.
males reach sexual maturity in about a year and a half, 3 years is generally what is considered the norm to breed females. A female can hit 20 feet in 4 years, but its unlikely. They'll usually hit 4-6 feet in their first year.

Re: How long...
I've bred male retics at 12 months, but generally around 18 months. Even with the 12 months olds, I've gotten from50-100% fertility... just depends on the male, and how you cool them.
females can breed at2years, but should wait till 3. I never breed my females before 25 lbs.
can't help ya with burms but its probbly about the same

Re: How long...
I was just wondering because I'd like to have one someday. Not anytime soon though, i know they would for sure eat my bunnies and give my grandma a heart attack nor do I have the money for something that big right now.

Re: How long...
I REALLY REALLY like the super dwarfs though! Are they naturally like that or are the a type of morph?

Re: How long...
SDs and dwarfs are just localities. Sometimes small islands contain huge snakes since the predator to prey ratio is lower. And vice versa

Re: How long...
Yeh, some locales like selayers are dwarves, while some like sulaweisis are insanely large for localities.

SDs are generally considered Kayuadi localities.
