Therea lifespan?

Seventh Instar
I had read that both T. olegrandjeani and T. petiveriana only live for a few months as adults, but mine are still going strong and I know it's been at least 7 months that they've been adults, possibly 9 months. I've lost a few (maybe three or four) in the past couple of months, but the majority of them are still alive and running around like crazy. Is this unusual, or was it old information that I had found? I enjoy the heck out of them, so I'd like to be somewhat prepared for when the inevitable happens.

(Not that there aren't hundred of babies to take their place at some point. :) And boy, are those growing fast!)

 
I think it's normal, mine lived for a quiete long time, like yours. But they started to die all on the same time (I've lost most of my adults on one or two weeks) ;)
