I share your observation on the Nile diet. They look allot better when they have a higher percentage of whole mammals in their diet as opposed to say fish. Thats one thing I like about the Mazuri you get the same 'look' as a whole mammal diet without nearly as much trouble. Like I said we'll see if reproductive performance works with it.



Its funny you mention your big calm male. It seems all of ours mellow with size and age as well. At first I thought it was just one animal but they all seem to do it. They are rough until about 7ft though, we have one enclosure with 5 4 footers that is more difficult to enter and move in that the enclosure next door with 11 and 12ft animals.



It is very possible I have a few of your Niles descendents onsite here. Maybe a little like father/like son?
