The lifespan of an adult male may be as short as a few weeks, to two years or more depending upon species and conditions in captivity. Most males, especially burrowing species, will not last more than six months to a year and a half under ideal conditions. Females may live 10, 20, even 30 or more years depending on the species. The longer lifespan makes females worth more.and some times the die by lak of food
