I was wondering what anyone could tell me about crested geckos. I currently keep a fat tail gecko, who has a personality i love. He is very calm and laid back (as i presume most fat tails are.) He tolerates being handled very well, and is just a pleasure to keep, as well as easy to care for. I was thinking of getting a leopard, but find crested oh so cute as well.
I was wondering what their general dispositions are like, and what their care entails. Good care sheet suggestions would be appreciated.
thanks for any info.

70-80 F, 50-75% humidity, nocturnal, eats: baby food, nectar, crickets, some fruit, general insects. Very calm, comparable to the fattail. Minimum 20 gallon tall, 35 recommended.

You can check out the Rhacodactylus forum for a fair amount of info and a number of people who're good with specific questions about cresties. And if you're looking for a caresheet, try the Dragon's Den Herp site or contacting Mike Coscia (you can find him on the Rhac forum).
Good luck - they're awesome.
