it may not get to around 9 foot. im afraid the truth of the matter is it could get to anywhere betwen 5 and 9 foot. it depends on the locality, and what its background is. without info on the parents distribution, it could have any number of locales in them, so it could theoretically get to anywhere in that size range

I own 3 Boas, I'm not 100% sure how old my biggest one is but he's over a year and he's already 5ft.

They average at around 8ft, females tend to get bigger in weight and length, but they can also get to a wopping 12ft depending on their parents etc etc.
