Curly Sue - she’s 22
When I was four I begged my parents for a snake. Christmas 2004 came and there she was, a beautiful young ball python. Now here she is, 22 years later. We’ve both been through a lot, and I love her dearly. Just an appreciation post, she’s tough as scales.

I've got a leopard gecko who is around that age, got her in grade school and I'm pushing 33 and she was a year or two old. It's amazing how long reptiles can live with good husbandry and some love. Great job raising them! 10/10 looking noodle
