One day an old farmer started across his pasture to go down to his farm pond. As he approached he saw several young ladies swimming in his pond. As he approached he noticed they were all nude and their clothes laying on the bank near him. He called to them saying "ladies you need to come out of my pond. They all started yelling "we're not coming out until you leave. The old farmer politely replied "That's fine, I just came down to feed my alligator". Needless to say what happened immediately after that.

I have a small gator (4 ft.) in my little backyard pond, if I could just get the adult ladies to go skinny dipping in it... ……… . .

I'm no gator expert but seems a small gator eventually becomes a big one and then what?

They move on....small ponds & seasonal ponds don't have a big enough café to serve meals for very long...and only a real fool (and law breaker) would feed one/any. I make sure any in my yard get a good scare if they hang around for long. If you don't feed them (and it is against the law to feed certain wildlife in Florida) - mainly any that are some sort of threat - as in will attack, or carry disease, or feeding causes loss of fear and dooms the animal (Sand Hill Crane for instance) they move on. Largest gator ever in my little pond was approximately 6 ft., and at that size they are becoming big enough to reduce the pet population, and take a big chunk of meat with a quick bite. Usually its males looking for a date. Good thing is - if one becomes a problem you can call a trapper or a poacher - and it will be removed - and gator tail is quite good eating, very popular down here.
