: How long do female corn snakes stay fertile. Human females go in to metapause about 50 so them what about snakes? The female I have is about 10 so then how many more years will she lays eggs?
: Or is there even a time that I should stop breeding her just because of future health concerns.

Violet,
I have many colubrid snakes that are over 20 years old and still reproducing. A 10 year old corn should be no problem. John
