Crested Gecko vs Gargoyle Gecko | Head To Head

Crested geckos and gargoyle geckos both make great pets. That's why they were both on our video about the Top 5 Pet Reptiles For Beginners. Ever since we made that video, people have been asking which of these two New Caledonian geckos is the best pet? I guess it is time to find out by putting the crested gecko and the gargoyle gecko head to head!

Had this debate with myself a year ago and then got my gargoyle. He's wonderful.

I am desperately waiting for
“Shark, the best pet Fish?”

One other thing to add in favor of the gargoyle gecko is because of their less sticky feet they can be less uncomfortable for sensitive people to handle. I have autism and I had the opportunity to handle a friend's crested gecko and it was actually kind of painful when it walked on my arm and when I had to pick it up, pulling its feet gently off my hand, to return it. I knew I wanted a gargoyle gecko just because i like the look more and I wanted the regrowing tail, but when I finally got to meet one (that I later purchased), I found it didn't hurt at all to have them crawl around on me. It's always good to meet a representative of a species before you get one, or to choose between some, but if you are also sensitive you may want to test if crested geckos pull too much on your skin as they move and gargoyle geckos do not.

"...and stickers for your face" Yup, He's a dad.

Bless you guys, this is exactly a debate I've been having with myself the last few days, trying to decide which I wanted to go with for a new vivarium. Your timing is stunning.

Omg PANGEA!! I work there! Hearing u talk about pangea makes me fangirl a little bit haha 😊😊😊

[willd]

I’m getting my daughter a gargoyle. Now I’m getting the setup from Pangea. Thanks Clint!

[heyher_the_odd]

The crestie at the end is a perfect representation of both my male crested geckos. I have found the males to be a bit more flighty than my females. But our subadult female that is from pangea is the calmest out of our 5 geckos.

I am finally old enough to have a gecko and I was stuck between these two. Now I've confirmed my choice of the crested gecko. Thanks so much!!!

[darthfulcrum]

Why is this channel so wholesome and positive? These videos always stick out in my recommended feed. Love these keep them up!

Dear Clint's Reptiles, Thank you for continuing to make content. You are one of the things getting me through 2020.

[honklmar]

I've been saving up for weeks. for a blue-tongued skink. my parents approve now all I have to do is work enough money for the enclosure, the food, the lizard. It wouldn't have ever happened if it wasn't for you. I was blessed by God to come across your videos. I love you💓💕 never stop doing your dream.

When you fight against the same character in the fighting game so it changes the color slightly
Edit:I haven’t watched the channel for a bit, so it’s nice to be back.i remember having a crested gecko named chocolate chip :)
(Sadly he passed)

When I first saw this video, I thought that they must have accidentally uploaded an old one. Then I remembered that I've never seen this video, and they filmed this in the reptile room, so WHY HAD THIS NOT BEEN MADE BEFORE!?!

[HollowReaperGaming]

The closed captions on this vid are wild 😂

[zach]

Thanks for being the coolest reptile guy on YouTube. I've been thinking about getting a lizard for the last year. This video helped me decide the Gargoyle Gecko is right for me. In A few days I get to pick up my Gecko, my first reptile.

[jiraiyaslytherin]

Gargoyles aren't available here, so that took care of the decision making 😂 love my two cresties, they're so different.

[katelillo]

I actually think the frog butt cresties are extra cute 🥰 that, combined with those giant round peepers... so adorable 😍

[armyamazon]

The more videos I watch, the more I want a crested gecko lol
