Do you have a water heater/know what the water temps are? It didn't sound like you've had him terribly long, so he may just be adjusting. All of our gators are very outgoing, but admittedly our spec does lots of hiding...just spends most of the daylight hours underneath something or other in the cage. Again though, in the interest of full disclosure, the caiman is very very small, the gators are all 3 foot plus, so there's obviously going to be behavioral differences. Exactly how long have you had the gator?
