Tabby, The family pet.
This old boy will be about twenty years old this year. My oldest son purchased this corn snake when he was 12 years old, and the snake was about 2ft. long when we got him. (So I'm thinking at least 2 years old.) My son just turn 30 in Jan.

Here are a few recent pictures. He just came out of brumation. I thought he was almost blind, and he didn't have a very good appetite the last few years. He would only eat one mouse every 2-3 weeks.
This year he came out of brumation an looked pretty rough (old), I fed him one med. mouse for starters to see how he would do. He went into shed. After he shed, took another adult mouse, and seems to be very active, and also seems to have his youth back. I haven't seen him this active in years. No other corn snakes in the house.Lol

Good job! That is great to see a snake of that age. He is obviously in good hands.
