How old is/was your oldest ball python

[Valyndris]

So I remember looking up the lifespan of a ball python 6 years ago and most sites were saying around 20 years, when I search it now days they said around 30 years. I'd like to know what everyone's oldest ball python is or was, this poll is just for ball pythons and no other snakes as all different species have different lifespans. This will let us know how old ball pythons can get and also show how many of us still have our young snakes.

My one and only ball python is 6 years old.

I hope Dianne responds, I think she has one 25-28 years old. Of course I could be wrong I’m both accounts.

Elvira is 18.

My breeder friend back home has one that, last I knew, was 34-36yrs old.
My boy, Geoffrey, is 10yrs.

Just had a question for all of you that have ball pythons over 20 years old. Do they behave differently? Like being less active and well act like an old person would. Also, do ball pythons develop old age issues like humans do? Like arthritis, getting sick easier, things like that. I am just curious as I'd like to know what to look out for and when for my little Crowley.
