How long does it take for a baby crocodile to become an adult crocodile?

The incubation period for crocodile eggs ranges from 55 to 110 days, depending on the species and climate. The optimal temperature range for embryonic development is 87-91º F (31-33º C). Many crocodile embryos die if the temperature falls below 78º F (26º C) or rises above 95º F (35º C). Under ideal conditions, eggs hatch more quickly, in approximately 65-95 days. The average is about 80 days.
