Breaking the ice

Hey guys, just figured I'd break the ice as I just joined up on the site. I keep an Alligator mississippiensis and a Crocodylus niloticus, and they bring me a lot of joy (except to my wallet). My gator is a bit over 4.5' at the moment and is cooled down for winter, and the Nile is young and a bit over 24'' and pounds down food.

Right now I'm currently trying to finish a new indoor enclosure with live grass and I will get pictures as soon as I'm done! Right now it's in the alpha stage and my gator is residing in his new home, though it's nothing fancy yet.

I was surprised to see so many crocodylian keepers on here, but it's a pleasant surprise. Anyway, looking forward to making contacts, seeing pics and chatting archosauria.

I'll try to get new pics as soon as I can, but spring semester is starting in a couple of days so my free time is about to become 0 haha.

Cheers!

Awesome!
Any enclosure pics?

I don't have any yet...still working on this finalization for these guys. Right now it's a 12' x 8' enclosure with a 170 gallon stock pond currently.
That will be up'ed to 300+ gallons over the next couple of months.

I can't wait to finish this though, I really want to show everyone!!

Cool! Welcome. I got a 10' by 13' indoor enclosure myself but no niles.

Thanks Le Plat, I saw you're video of the enclosure. Very cool man.

The Nile is something else haha, certainly not of the alligatorid behavior.
