The common crayfish (crawfish) lives about 2 or 3 years, but individuals may live to be as old as 8 years. Some rare species can live as long as 20 years.
After reaching 2 years of age, they have usually grown fairly large and have difficulty creating larger shells beyond a certain size. Each new molting makes them more vulnerable to predators.
