new guy with some pics

[kinggill]

I introduced myself on the new guy thread...found some pics....just thought i would start a thread with past and present animals that i had,have or work around...I will try to add a little here and there when i have time...Im new to this scanning and posting pics thing so just hang on...I'll get it right sooner or later:sorry: Please ENJOY

Well i will start this thread with "Lumpy" he was an american alligator that i adopted and the best pet i personally ever had...Dog Tame and well liked by everyone that met him....summer time he had a nice open encloser outside with a cement pond....in the winter he was free to roam around my house with an unrestrained mouth....never had an issue with him...the only time i taped him was out in public...i trusted him...just didnt trust the humans!!!!...when he passed away it was a very sad day here....RIP Lumpsters:no:

why are my photos ending up so tiny yet taking up so much space...they are coming like that from my scanner to my photo alblum???Help please i have many pics i would like to share

[whoaxmary]

I'm not sure why that is helping - I suck at scanning things myself. Someone here will probably have an idea.
Nice picture -and welcome to the site.

helping = happening

Prolly my favorite pic i ever took with Lumpy...i brought a few animals to a company picnic to keep the kids busy...didnt make jack ...but i did educate a few people on reptiles...so it was worth it....Just too much of a photo oportunity to pass up:crazy:

How long and heavy was she?

[presspirate]

He looks crabby. Thanks for sharing the pics, and your experiences. I'll bet you have a few stories to tell. Looking forward to handling a gator at our upcoming reptile show in March

[kinggill]

She was somewheres around 19 ft... I dont think we ever weighed her...she was very aggressive ...unfortunatly when we got her she was a pregnant female taken from the wild....after she had the babies,i remember she did not eat very good...maybe one duck here or there...very stressed out im sure ...this was prolly 12 years ago and I dont think too much breeding was going on with these....the Bad thing about a Zoo is they want LARGE animals now!!!!!!!!So back then theres only one place to get them...i worked with alot of wild caught monsters...a real chore to clean and feed....but quite a rush some days.....Im so happy to see everyone breeding everything so most of the reptiles do not have to be taken from the wild...but I guess ya gotta start somewheres...myself being out of this hobby hardcore for so long i see i have alot to learn and am really looking foward to producing some babies myself...just gotta find my nitch...i am quite fond of Varanids :)

presspirate...yes gators are cool...can be really mellow if theve had alot of hands on....best of the crocodilians...ive worked with a few differant caimen,and croc species...I would work with a 10 ft american alligator any day rather than a 5ft nile croc ..any how heres "Big Mac"...a rouge gator we got from a golf course in florida...... i guess it was causing problems for the golfers:crazy:This here was a couple hr process removing him because he got too large for this cage...we ended up putting an albino gator in here
