American Alligator husbandry questions.

[KMG]

ive had 2 crested geckos, own a turtle, and had 2 beardies. Both the geckos and beardies have died of old age. Mt turtle is still alive and well. I have a 3 bedroom trailer only two are full. The king size is open as i didnt need that much space. I seen HUGE plastic tubs that could easily fit a adult croc. Ive had experience with lizards however im new to snakes. I called the state rep office for further information on state regulations and permits needed... Im gettin the animal for the love of the animal, not for anything more. Its upsetting people let them go as adults as they should be fully prepped for an adult in the first place. Im more than ready to own one but need the permits. I want to have hands on physical knowledge of these animals as i find them interesting, the same reason people buy snakes. They find them interesting and have a loving, caring, burning passion for them. I have that same passion for crocs. I want one.

So which is it, Alligator or Crocodile?

Many people keep Caiman Crocs but they are much smaller than an American Alligator. Are you confused of what you want?

A trailer bedroom is not going to be the proper environment to house a large alligator or crocodile. I have never seen a plastic tub large enough to hold an adult croc, not unless you count pre-molded swimming pools. I don't think you realize how large these animals truly are.
