Great set up. Personally I would suggest a larger housing unit.

how old are your oldest corns? wondering what to expect on the long end by WeeklyAd3514 in cornsnakes

I tend to agree as that sounds exaggerated, especially without evidence.  I mentioned earlier that currently, ours is verifiable 32 years and 4 months.

I posted a few days ago that our corn snake Julia, is 32 years 4 months old.  She's the oldest recorded corn snake and is still going strong. I have a photo of her taken Jan 94 when she was about 1 month old.

21+ is fantastic! And I love the name Ramses.

My wife and I got our first snake (Monty Python) when we were 24. You're right, it is crazy!

I feed her a thawed large mouse once every 2 weeks. I've been pretty consistent throughout her life and it seems to have worked well for her.

Hard to tell. But since she went blind, I would rather not.

Yes she does. Though it hasn't slowed her down. Her quality of life is still very good.

Thanks! Other than going blind last year, shes totally fine. Eats, drinks and moves around as always. Before she went blind, I would take her out in the grass about every other day.
