They are really cool and you will have alot of fun with the setup. And they are one of the easiest pets to care for. Ive had a few. But they werent very active. I never even saw mine eat. And they are excellent escape artists. Mine got out once and I got a huge scare from it. Mostly because the people in the house would kill me if they found out it was out. Also all my friends with cresteds have had the same experience. And im the most careful person when it comes to having my herps out. My family hates them and its my head if they wake up to a gecko on them. Just be careful!
