    Where are the Senior Snakes?

    If a snake can live for up to 40 years, depending on the species, where are all the senior snakes?

    I see photos of a lot of babies and yearlings, some that are a little older, but not many that are very old at all.

    What is/are the oldest snake(s) you own, and how long have you owned it/them?

    And of course... if you have pics, please post them! I love seeing pics!

    Meet Chubby, my 13 year old Western Hognose. She's the sweetest old lady ever. I've only had her a few months, I'm her second owner. Her previous owner bought her as a hatchling way back when. Have some pix of her. The blurry ones I took, the nice ones her first owner took, lol.

    I just adopted her a few months ago, but her previous owner has had her since she was a baby.

    She's 10 years old
