Pet crocodiles are crocodiles whose larvae are not big enough to be kept as pets. It is best to choose a pet crocodile with a body length of about 40 cm in the market, because it is not easy to get sick and die, and there is no problem in worrying about how to domesticate it in the future. Choose a fierce crocodile who is always vigilant. In this way, we can avoid many detours in feeding and avoid many unnecessary troubles.
The number of pet crocodiles in the market is relatively limited. Generally, only Thai crocodiles, that is, Thai crocodiles, belong to a kind of crocodiles, with a body length of 3-4 meters, fierce personality and carnivores.
A few caimans are sold, which can grow to about 2 meters and are considered as small crocodiles. They are also more popular because they are smaller than Thai crocodiles. The dwarf caiman is a crocodile, which is over 1.5 meters in size and is also popular.
In addition, American Mississippi alligators and Chinese alligators are also very popular. The former can be up to 4 meters long and the latter is the largest, but the latter is not considered because it protects animals.
Domestication and feeding
It is not difficult to keep a pet crocodile. In fact, it is better than some tropical fish. There is nothing to worry about except safety. The food of pet crocodiles is meat, fish, crustaceans, shellfish, water turtles, all kinds of poultry and animals.
As long as they are within their food range, they eat a lot, but that doesn't mean they can be fed too much. Crocodiles overeating is not a good thing, so they will grow up quickly and live a much shorter life.
Water quality is the main problem. Crocodiles are the king of diet. If they are not cleaned up, the water quality in their breeding boxes will soon deteriorate or become dirty, which will lead to various diseases. Proper sunbathing is much better for crocodiles than UVB lights and UVA lights. Although crocodiles prefer aquatic products, they should sunbathe whenever possible.
