Agreed, most reptiles are not like mammals, that age with seasons, and maturity is measurable in calander years, for reptiles maybe we should age them in terms of #of meals years. So when someone asks how old is that corn snake the answer would be, " oh, she's about 10 pinkies, ten fuzzies, ten smalls, fifteen mediums old now". Or maybe it should be "well she's 3 feet old now, should breed this spring"
