In my opinion, they are easier to keep than leos - which doesn't make them hard at all. They are extremely hardy. Right now, I keep them between 70-80 degrees - mist them 1 or 2 times a day - and feed Crested Gecko Diet mixed with fruit baby food or water. That's it.

They do very good with minimal care - and the adults I have are certainly handleable - sometimes to a better degree than even leos. Plus, they are extremely interesting herps to keep.

Good luck!!!
