:Both Sandfire Dragon Ranch and Crestedgecko are good breeders. Each of them have their strong points. I think you just have to find the color you desire, and ask them. As far as price goes - i always figure, you get what you pay for.

:I've done purchases with both of them and have no complaints. I've only done leos with Garrick though, and Allen does have some KILLER cresties, that's for sure.

:I think - in fact, I KNOW, - Sandfire does Gargoyles. I also know that Phil Tremper of Tremper Lizard Ranch has some really nice Aurics (I think he does all the Rhacs currently kept in captivity) - plus I talked to him on the phone last week and he's an ICEFISHERMAN.

:You can always trust the man who fishes through the ice!!!!

:Monte - Powergeckos


Monte is right. You get what you pay for.You can no doubt get a crestie cheaper than what you will pay from Sandfire or Crestedgecko but you are paying for the reputation & experience in the breeder as well. It is well worth the extra money. Especially if this is your first crestie. As far as gargoyles, Phil Tremper & Tim Tytle lizards are two of the best!
