I think my crocodile has a belly full of gravel. What can I do?
Is it safe? How do I get it out?

I dont really know what to tell you in regards to this, I wouldnt want to advise you wrong.

But ... crocodilians do normaly in the wild swallow some rock and gravel which does no harm.

I recall reading some articles in more depth on this subject years ago on this board i believe.

If you are really worried about this, then call a vet thats experiancd with crocodilians .. but if it were my croc I wouldnt be to worried unless it swallowed a very large amount.

Hope this helps a little
