Baby Alligators

Last week while on fall break we went to Louisiana to visit family and friends. While visiting grandparents the kids got to hold baby alligators in the big town of Jennings. They loved it! The alligators do not bite. They are fed a soy formula and feed by a dropper until they are two. Feeding them soy ensures that they will not bite. After they turn two then they start feeding them chicken. Bailey and Jesse loved holding them. Jack didn't want anything to do with the alligators. He wouldn't even touch it. The alligators were named Bubba and Hampton. The alligators are rescue gators. Hampton got his name from the hotel. An owl dropped him in the parking lot of the Hampton hotel and someone brought him to the welcome center in Jennings.
