I believe it's a hatchling, just like with alligators. If she'd like to know about other animals too, go to

It's so neat that she wants to learn like that.

The crocodile lays eggs and they take between 8-12 weeks to hatch. There could be up to 90 eggs in the nest. When they are ready to hatch the baby crocodiles make a yapping sound from inside the eggs so the mother will dig them out of the ground and carry them to the water. A baby crocodile is called a Hatchling.

Generally just hatchlings or neonates, then yearlings, then juveniles or subadults, then adults. Males are bulls and females are cows, though the terms aren't used all that often.
