In Idaho, if a person is convicted of a felony for the third time, he/she will be considered a ‘persistent violator of law'. All three felonies do not need to be convictions from within the state of Idaho. Once the person is convicted the third time, he/she will be sentenced to prison for no less than five years and up to life.
Read more about this law at Idaho Code 19-2514.

How close together do the felonies need to be and do they all need to be the same type of crime?

No, they do not have to be for the same crime. They only need to be felony offenses.
