KRAZE

Hey guys, my dwarf is now just a hair shy of a full 4 feet and if I remember correct is a little over 5 years old. I have an opportunity to get an about 2.5 foot male from a new friend of mine who just doesn't have the room anymore.

So first question... i need to sex mine. Its large enough and i plan to try the 'pinky probe' method sometime next week. Any tips on doing this the safest way and putting the least stress on him/her? I plan to tape the mouth and have an assistant hold the body secure, because he/she is a wild one lol.

Second, IF it turns out to be a female, i have an indoor pond of 160 gallons of water and an 8x6 area. This should be enough room for the two of them, correct? Also, is there any restrictions from putting the two of them together? Should they even be housed together or am i asking for trouble? I don't plan to breed them as of right now, but in a couple seasons when the male is more mature I'm sure i would love to give it a try. So as of right now I'm looking to just simply keep them together. What do ya'll think?

Any references to a good source for info on housing crocodilians (specifically dwarfs) together?

Thanks!
