When you buy your first pet alligator how many pounds of baby poop should it eat a day?

December 17th, 2009

I just bought my first pet alligator, and a website and the pet store and my BFF Jill said to feed it baby poop. so how much?

I’m pretty sure you’re making this up, and if you really did have a gator, you’d already know what to feed it. But, I’ll help anyway. Baby gators should be fed mostly crickets as well as pinky mice and minnows. Of course, they’re illegal in most places, but I’m sure you already know that.

How to get rid of alligator in backyard?

December 17th, 2009

This alligator is in my backyard and its bothering me what should I do?

if there is no way to get rid of it yourself (i.e.- shooting it, getting it to go away) than you should call your local police department, they will guide you from there. (not 911 because that number is for emergency assistance, this situation deos not require "emergency assistance").

I bought a vintage alligator leather bag, but how can I be sure if its genuwine?

Turn it over to look at the part that is not highly visible, put about a spoonful of cold water on it, and let it sit for about ten minutes. Then smell it. If it has that swampy odor to it then it is genuine alligator.

Is it legal to own a alligator as a pet in texas?

December 17th, 2009

My husband is looking to buy a alligator as a pet plaese help we need to know if it is legal or not.

Yes, they are legal, but only with a permit from Texas Parks and Wildlife. They usually only give this permit to zoos and scientific institutions, and very rarely do they give one to private individuals. But you can legally own caimans and crocodilians without a permit in Texas. But it comes down to city ordinances. Most of the larger cities in Texas have ordinances against the ownership of a crocodilian in city limits. But if you live in the country or a small town, you can most likely own one. Just make sure to check your local ordinances. I had a dwarf caiman for years. They are the smallest crocodilian, only growing to 4 or 5 feet.

What do you do when confronted by an alligator?

December 17th, 2009

On dry land? Say you find one in your kitchen, or in your garden(yard). Don’t know where, but I heard alligators can run fast when they want to, so running may not be a good idea. True or false?

And don’t just say phone the alligator collector or whoever it is who takes them away. I’m asking because I’m going to be in the middle of nowhere, Florida and a little, not concerned, but I would like to know what to do.

Alligators are generally calm and wont attack unless provoked. They’re regarded as ambush animals meaning that if they see you walking around and you look delicious they’ll lunge once and if you can escape that they’ll back off. Its actually pretty rare that an alligator would follow a human, and no Ive never heard that running in zig-zags helps but you’re welcome to try.

I am looking for suppliers of crocodile/alligator skins and/or leather for bags and other accessories.

Suppliers should be in the Philippines, preferably in Metro Manila, Laguna, Batangas, Bulacan, and other nearby provinces to cut down on shipping costs. Thanks!
