Your snake(s) age?

I know that Ball Pythons can live anywhere from 20-almost 50 yrs old and I've noticed here lately that some people on here have talked about having 20+ year old Balls...I'm curious...How hold old is YOUR snake or snakes?

I've only had snakes for a year so all I have is 2 Balls that are a year old, a 2010 Cal-King and a 2010 Corn.

My ball pythons are all 2007 and under, so 3 years and under. My largest female is unknown as far as age.

Not sure the exact date that he hatched, but mine is a '10 male, and he's the only one I've got so far ;)

My oldest ball python is around 4-5 years old, but I have a 13 year-old corn snake! :)

my oldest is a male 2005 het clown

50 years? never herd that one

oldest one I have is 4 years old

Seems like a lot of people are relatively new to snakes :)

All of the info I have read about their lifespan in captivity has said 20-40 yrs with the possibility of 50 yrs. I'm sure 50 is very rare but apparently still possible.

Iv never heard of a Ball Python living to be 50. Mine is only 14 Weeks old lol.

Now I don't know how true this is, but on this page it says that the oldest recorded Ball Python was 48 yrs old when it died. I had heard this somewhere other than this page before as well, if I track it down I'll post it too.

I hope my guys live that long!:gj: If they do, they'll probably outlive me but that's ok, my son is becoming quite the snake handler :)
