It's your call of course but if the female is as old as you say is it wise to mate her. Laying eggs is very stressful at the best of times.

A corn snake born in 1999 is not old, unless you mean she is 99 years old, in which case, that is old!! I have corn snakes 15 years + still being great breeders.. the oldest corn in captivity is 32 years old.

Here's my website with a section on breeding CWCorns - Christy Whatley Corn Snakes
