LOL....there were a few cuts but only from picking up the cage.

definitely a few scary moments where the croc almost got out of the cage in the water capture, but I was very pleased with the result in the end.

Indonesian hospitals are far more scary than the crocs.

We let the crocs out together today, and they bit each other a few times with a bit of rolling action but all seemed well at the end of the day. Hopfully over the coming week they will get used to each other.

I'll post some pictures of them tomorrow if they havent eaten each other over night.....

A few days after the introduction all is going well, a couple of bites so far but nothing too serious.

The 2 crocs seem to be tolerant of each other which is good. Hopefully over the next few weeks they will be easy going with each other.

The first few minutes of the introduction were a bit wild (after being sat next to each other with the cage dividing for 4 hours)

A bit of head slapping, a fight in the water with a few bites, but all was easily manageable with a long bamboo stick and a few pokes.

Thanks for all the comments, these are not a pet I would easily recommend....LOL
