We have bred Niles a couple of times here. We don't use Mazuri exclusively for any of our crocs but it is a primary staple. One of the breedings was another older group that belonged to another individual. They where not Mazuri feeders although we did sneak some into their diet. Hatch rate was 60-70% if memory serves.

I will be able to tell more over the next 2-5 years as our group is very young and we have quite a few primarily Mazuri raised animals coming upon breeding size this year and next. I will say that animals raised on the diet look very good and I don't anticipate any problems. But we'll see.
