Snake Encounters

This was the best experience my kiddo had for his birthday. Mr. Darryl is nothing short of amazing, from his jokes to the loads of information he shared with us! We loved him and the show it was so much fun 10/10.

He was absolutely amazing!! The kids and grown ups loved him! He was funny, educational, and actually got people over their fear of snakes! This is a MUST BOOK for a party or any social event!

What a great show. Enjoyed by all ages. Daryl has a special knack of putting everyone at ease. He is very knowledgeable and clearly loves what he does. He exceeded my expectations. So many different types of snakes too. I'm not exactly fond of snakes but even I felt so comfortable at the end I touched a few. His show is about an hour long and has a perfect balance of information and fun.

We had the best time at my sons 7th bday party! Snake encounters was so much more than expected and he had the room laughing and learning at the same time. This will be a lifelong memory for everyone that came

I hired Daryl at Snake Encounters to do a reptile show for my son's 6th birthday. I spent 15 - 20 minutes on the phone with Daryl when booking his services to discuss the party and to better understand the show he would put on.

Daryl did a great job explaining to me what to expect and provided advice on what works great for a young child's birthday. Every thing Daryl explained to me occurred during the show so my expectations were 100% met.

Most importantly, Daryl was great with the kids and also with the adults, mixing in a good balance of comedy and also took time to explain details of about the reptiles and provided a great message to everyone the importance of reptiles to our ecosystem.

Great Job Daryl, thank you for helping make my son's birthday a big success!

Darryl was amazing. He was very informative and entertaining. My daughter is now on the crusade to “move all insects to the neighbors” without hurting them. LOL. All the kids who were afraid of snakes touched or held one by the end of the show. Including the parents. I highly recommend the “snake guy” for your next event.

We had a group of about 200 5th and 6th grade students in a large room for VBS. They - and the leaders - were all Captivated the entire time! It was a great way to end our "In The Wild" week at First Baptist in Frisco. The jokes were funny, the stories were good, the education was spot on, and the animals were varied and great. The only-only-Only critique I had is that we needed the show to go 45 minutes but it went over an hour. But, like I said before, it was captivating all the way through! Definitely would hire Snake Encounters for another event if the opportunity presents itself!

Highly remcommend! So great!! Our group loved his show. Ages from 5-70 years all had a wonderful time. My sides hurt from laughing so much!

The kids at this birthday party, ranging from 4-9, all ended the show holding a snake in one form or another...those terrified at the beginning, included! (I may have hopped the couch to avoid touching one, but that’s a different story😉)
Thanks so much, Snake Encounter!

Darrell did an amazing job entertaining the whole crowd - kids and adults alike! He is funny and engaging, and his collection. Of 'friends' are awesome! We highly recommend his show for anyone looking to make their party the talk of the season!

I booked a snake party for my son's birthday. We had about 25 guests - 6 and 7 year olds. Party was a hit!!! So much so that parents were asking for referrals. Thanks for making my son's party SO special!!!!!

Daryl was professional and very personable. We booked him for a birthday party for my son. Our guests all thought it was awesome! Definitely recommend!

My 5 year old wanted a reptile party and Mr. Sprout did not disappoint! The children as well as the adults were actively engaged! Everyone had a great time!

What a great show. We had kids of all ages and they loved the show. Just the right amount of fun, education and animal handling.
They arrived when they were supposed and everything went off without a hitch. It made for some GREAT Facebook photos.
Highly recommended.

He was great and kept 150 children ages 4-13 occupied and entertained the entire time! Spell-binding!

My daughter asked for a reptile party and pink tutus. We pulled together an amazing theme and the best part was Snake Encounters. He had my five year old and her friends eating out of his hands. Every parent shared that their kids all want this party and that it was the best party. Thank you. Thank you.

Got Darryl for my husband's 50th birthday party. Very professional. Great with the kids, highly entertaining for the adults and more educational than many of the other "educational" reptile shows I've seen. We loved that we could actually hold and enjoy the reptiles after the show. Other shows just don't give you that option. Several of our friends who came in afraid of snakes ended up holding them and loving it. Highly recommended!

We had Mr. Sprout come to our daughter's 7th birthday party themed 'snakes'. He was phenomenal! The kids (and adults!) had an absolute wonderful time! He was funny, entertaining, a great magician, and we absolutely enjoyed having him here! I'd like to convince my daughter to have a snake party every year!! Absolutely the best experience ever!! We loved him and his slithering animals! I'm even a little less fearful of snakes now! :)
