I had two females that I got when I was a senior in high school that had been in captivity for 21 years before I got them. Both were fully adult when the person I got the from first got them. I kept both for 10 years and they produced eggs every year. I gave them to a friend but fell out of touch with him after a couple of years so I don't know their history since then.
BUT............
I have a friend who has a pair that he got as young adults in 1968. He still has them and the female produces eggs every year.
All of these are, or were Colombian redfoots.

As a side note, I have another friend who has had a pair of radiated tortoises for 53 years!
