    How old is your ball python?

    Just curious. My snake is 33, wondering how much longer she's gonna be around.

    Re: How old is your ball python?

    My oldest ball python has been traded three times as a retired breeder before I got him 14 years ago. Now he moves super slow and has been sleeping kinda upside down (which is disturbing)...he seems fine otherwise...

    Re: How old is your ball python?

    My oldest bp will be 29 this year, and the youngest are less than a year. Most of the care sheets will tell you to expect 30 years, but I have read there are some that live past 40. I’m aiming for that...love my boy Eli.

    I have two 5-6 year olds (not 100 percent sure because they were Craigslist rescues). And I have a 1 year old.

    Re: How old is your ball python?

    My oldest is 25. Got him in 1994 when he was around 6 months old (guess based on size) he was my first snake. Still seems healthy and content. I also have a 2 year old BP

    Re: How old is your ball python?

    It would be really cool to get some age ranges. People always ask me "how long to they live..."? I am really looking forward to seeing actual numbers. Thank you everyone for your input.
