so far, I've posted pics of nine of my 2001's I just got from Rich....

I hope you enjoy them; they are simple propless pics (these little guys are still very skittish so elaborate photo shoots are pretty much out of the question.)

hey

I said that already, please stop posting hypo lavender pic´s unless I have my own!

they are too nice:-(
 
Wow! That's a lot....!
I could only dream of 16 snakes unless I incubate my own...
I'd like to see the other lavenders.....I think I saw all of the hypolavs...don't listen to pewter....they are great!!!! lol Keep em coming... I really want to see the butter motley though! Thanks! Do you have a lot of older corns as well?
 
OK, Mary Jane (she reminds me of the candy, thus the name) and the other lavs are at the top of the list....

My oldest SerpenCo snakes are the 2001's. My oldest corns however, by my guess, are probably over 15 years old... Iit's a pair I got from a friend that couldn't keep them, and he got them from someone, blah blah blah, so all I have to go on is their size, and both Max and Ruby are MONSTERS as corn snakes go - they make a 20-long seem small; if Ruby soaks she displaces almost all the water in her "jumbo" water bowl.

In-between I have a number of corn snakes that, except for one, were acquired online - maybe 50% from well known breeders, and 50% from before I really knew what I was doing and not much can be said about them other than they are lovely snakes which I'll need to run through breeding trials to find out what they really are :) I think the oldest among those is J-Lo, a robust Okeetee (theoretically Love-line and het hypo, I presume B-type, or "sunkist") she's about twice the size of my other "proven" breeders (I say "proven" because I have not personally established than *any* of my snakes is willing or capable of breeding.) Anyway, I'd guess she's no less than 5 or 7 years old. Most the others are under five years old.

I also have 1 baby ball python, but I think they are just as habit-forming as corn snakes, leopard geckos, and cocaine so it's sure to get some friends sooner or later....

Ruby and Max...

Hey Curtis!

How much do Ruby and Max weigh? I've been trying to guesstimate how old one of my adopted corns is. She is right at 50 inches long and weighs almost 600 grams. Well, she weighs a little less now because she laid eggs almost four weeks ago, but she is putting the weight back on. Anyway, I was just curious about the size of your two oldest corns. I thought it might give me an idea as to how old mine is.

Thanks!
 
Well, keep in mind there's a bit of guesswork when I conclude they are both 15 or older, but since you asked, I weighed them each tonight and Max is 608 grams, and Ruby is a mind-boggling 848 grams. I don't have my last measure on Max handy, but here's a pic I took of Ruby while they were out being weighed andwhen I ran it through the SM tool I came up with 56" long....

WOW!!!

848 grams??? She IS huge! So my snake could be anywhere from 5 years old to who knows how old?!?!? My male...who is supposed to be 4 years old...weighs 572 grams and is 47.7 inches long. And then you have my anery female who was bought as a hatchling in 1997...She is tiny! I adopted her in April and she only weighed 105 grams. I know she was force fed as a hatchling, but she still should have been bigger. She eats like a pig and has gained almost 100 grams since April.
 
sometimes I wonder...

Sometimes I wonder if maybe she isn't part python :p

She eats young (weened) rats, for crying out loud.

Yes, as for your snakes, you really can only say how old they must be, not how old they can be. As far as I know there's no good way to age a corn snake because as you note, some adults never get any longer than ~36".

I'd start worrying if she grows any longer!! ;)

My snow corn eats small rats, too. She gulps
them down like they are nothing!
