The Croc FAQ at the top here will provide you with the basics. Not to plug a personal project but I have a section on them in my book 'The Ultimate Guide to Crocodilians in Captivity' which you can get from me or Amazon among other places. Or make a list of questions and I or others can tell you what we know. I keep three animals, varying sizes. All raised from hatchling.

Sincerely,

I have a nile croc and had a hard time with care info but it is the same as for the caimans but what Iwas most interested in is I noticed you had a prairie dog. I have 7 of them 2 males and 5 females. I've had them 5 years with no babies. I love mine to death, make great pets. How long have you had yours and is it tame??
