Age is meaningless. I'm not sure who started the "the 3 years old" rule, but it's nonsense. In snakes, like most other reptiles, it's size that determines maturity. There have been corn snakes that successfully bred at 9 months of age. If your corn snakes are somewhere in the neighborhood of 3 feet in length, they can successfully breed irregardless of their age. There have been many, many corn snakes that have been sucessfully bred at 18 months of age.
