They can live as long as 32 years, but most that I know of only get to about half of that (16 years). As you might expect, their life expectancy is rather variable. There's speculation that captive bred morphs don't live as long as wild-caught corns, presumably because of all the inbreeding needed to create color phases.
I have several corns that are 8 years old.
