I noticed, with the exception of one post, that all the topics are on Cresteds in this section. I just thought I'd post a couple of photos of my Gargoyles (r. auriculatus):

Sky one of my females



Star another of my females



Nimbus - after a series of failures my first home bred Gargoyle



And finally for now, Snowflake one of my males



Very Happy

I have also been asking people that question lately, and every single person i asked said that Cresties were better.

to be honest Sonny, they are both as easy to keep. I would say that one difference I have found is that gargoyles tend to be out during the day a little longer and are less likely to jump off your hand when you are holding them.

I would be happy to recommend either as a starter lizard (so long as they were set up correctly).
