As long as the state that wants you has indicated that they WILL extradite you, it can take as long as it takes for the necessary legal steps to be coordinated between the two states. If you are still being held after 30 days, you should file a Writ of Habeus Corpus to determine the status of the proceedings.

Can Iowa extradite me for a failure to appear warrant if I live in Colorado?

All US states and territories honor each other's requests for extradition - there are no 'safe-haven' states - it is impossible to know with certainty whether a particular state will choose to extradite you or not, there are simply too many variables. It may depend on the offense and the seriousness of it and/or how badly they want you returned - most states WILLextradite for felony offenses.

One county within the same state will honor another county's arrest warrant and hold you until they come to transport you back to the county that wants you.
