Personally I would go for what I like the best.

Perhaps make a list of what you would like to get out of each particular herp and then do a shortlist of attributes in order of priority / importance. Then base your decision on the research that you have done.

For example:
cost including correct set up
species that can be handled or not
Nocturnal
Diurnal
Ease / difficulty of care
Space available for set up
Amount of time required for correct husbandry
and so forth.

yer ^^^^ I agree with Rick.
I have posted in your other question.
I have had this dilemer a few times and now I have BOTH, lol lucky me.
They both certainly have there pros and cons, ie, cresties dont mind handling (yemens do)
yemens are diurnal (cresties are nocturnal)

I am lucky i suppose because I have both-and more Wink (im only 13)
and personnally I could not choose which I perfere because my yemen is a right caracter not for hanling and the cresties and gargs dont get fussed about handeling but you have to be careful to be gentle when handeling (tails).
anyway thats my opinion.
Paul
