many people in Southern states keep them in ponds that are fenced in. People like me who live in Northern states have to build indoor enclosures such as a converted basement or a greenhouse. Sadly though most people who buy Crocodilians are clueless about the animals or just dont care which is why probably over 95% of baby alligators bought in pet stores will either end up dead before they reach adulthood or on an Alligator farm down South

I plan to build a greenhouse in about 3-4 years for mine but right now he’s just in a converted room in the basement as he’s only 3 ft. right now they take a while to grow to 10 ft. , If you go under the pictures area for this site and look under the Alligator/crocodiles section there are several examples of converted basements although i havent seen any other keepers w/ greenhouses
