How old is your royal python

According to most literature captive royal pythons live to be 20 to 30 years old. So I am wondering how old are your royals and who has the oldest one?

I have a female who laid a clutch of eggs this year (and last year, and 1999, 1997, and 1996). I acquired her in 1995 and she was over 10 years old then. SO she's close to 20 + years now. They live a LONG time. For sure.

Mine aren't that old, but Rob Carmichael could easily take the cake for having the oldest balls around Last I knew a few years back some of his balls were in their late 30's (maybe some in their 40's as well? I can't remember) and still producing viable clutches every year
