That would be Petey, the jack Russell he's a nosey little turd.

LOL.. yea that would be Petey...

Heres setup pics.. tanks is dirty. Theres dry salt residue on the inside. I got most of it off, but still a lot there. And i also use the top as a work table..haha..lol.

I also have an outdoor enclosure fenced in and overtop with a 15X15' grassy area and a 400 gallon pool. Tazz will be going out there this summer.

this is tazz's lil buddy.. there actually the same age. And siblings. I got it for a friend, he obviously diddnt take care of it. So i got him back.

Looks like he loves his enclosure. Very neat and clean! Nice!:main_thumbsup:

 

[Reptile_le00man7mm]

Thanks all.. yea there interesting animals. If they EVER turn down a meal, thats a sign that something is wrong with them..lol. They eat so MUCH. I feed them a variety of things. Raw chicken, mice, minnows, crayfish,(they love them!) and about anything else that crawls or moves. I am going to run into a problem with heating there outdoor enclosure this winter. But i have found a wood furnace hot water heater blue print that im going to fabricate up in my shop.

gators are awesome looking, size is a major downfall though, are there any type that stay small? say maybe 3 ft? If so Id love to get one, but I cant have anything that gets any bigger than that

 

[Reptile_le00man7mm]

Sure there is an alternitive.. out of the 23 species of crocodilians these are the smallest.. average around 3-4 feet.

The dwarf caiman
