So much fun!

My son just had the BEST time at his birthday party! Nico brought about 1/2 dozen different animals and he was so fun and patient with the kids. They all had a blast as did their parents. What a great service and an important cause. The kids gained huge confidence building in learning about these animals, handling them and some even conquering their fears. I would highly recommend Canyon Critters for parties, pet adoption and would hire again! Thank you for a fantastic party! Jen Snow

Best Show EVER

We got Canyon Critters for my son Luis' party and he had so much fun. He did not want to hold any reptiles like he thought he would but Nico was great with giving him the first chance. He gave lots of information about each reptile and had such a great sense of humor. Highly recommend and was by far our best party.

It wasn't what I wanted

The person who came spoke in a low tone and such a low voice I never caught his name. No information was really shared about the animals 3 snakes , a tortoise a Madagascar cockroach, bearded lizard. No real presentation of the animals when the children/adults walked into veiw them. We had a party and the animals were supposed to have been an "attraction" possibly be better set up as an educational presentation. The guy was very unfriendly at best, maybe a bit "reptilian" in his own right.

Response from Canyon Critters LLC:

As I always do, I did introduced myself by name and shook your hand as we discussed the location for the show. If you were in the auditorium for more then a few minutes you would have heard me answer dozens of questions. I did educate the many people walking in and out of the auditorium about the critters and why they are in the sanctuary. I do over two hundred shows a year and as you can see from my reviews they go well and are appreciated. I find it rude and expect better than insults and calling someone names from a faith based organization.

Fun and Informative!

Canyon Critters was definitely the highlight of my son's birthday party. And not just for the kids, but the adults too! Nico was incredibly informative and had a fun, playful demeanor with the kids.

Amazing!

My six year old son and his friends (ages ranging up to 11) loved Nico, who is not just a snake whisperer but also, secretly, a child whisperer; and they were blown away by the critters (so were the adults). We will never forget this birthday party. Thanks to Nico, for the party, and for all the work he does for those animals.

Awesome Experience!

Such a unique experience! My son and his friends absolutely loved the reptiles and Nico was great! He made sure each child had an opportunity to touch or hold each snake or lizard etc. and pictures could be taken. Thank you!!

Good with animals not with kids

Nico was not very patient with the children. Made jokes about my child which caused tears in front of his friends. Great with animals but not kids.

Response from Canyon Critters LLC:

I'm sorry to hear you feel this way. I wish you would have said something while I was still there, so I could have made sure Carson was OK. I thought I was good with the kids, after you literally doubled the # of kids, I still made sure everyone had a chance to hold all the critters. I apologize if you were not happy with the show.

A Birthday Party Everyone Will Remember

Nico and his animals provided the entertainment for our daughter's 5th birthday in Fort Collins. He arrived a little early and was very professional. He brought a wide assortment of "critter" including at least four snakes of different sizes, a tortoise, a tarantula, and a lizards. He was very knowledgeable and did a great job engaging children of different confidence levels. His animals were excellent with the children, and the adults were as pleased as the children were. I encourage you to hire Canyon Critters for your event and your payment helps fund his animal rescue.

Awesome!

I hace had a total of 4 reptiles parties for my son...of course he wants another one this year. 2 of them were not Canyon Critters with Nico... I won't do that again! Nico is great and it is all hands on with reptiles in your lap. Better like reptiles or lock your self out of the house for the party. LOL. He's great.

Awesome show

I couldn't be happier with Nico and his wonderful reptile friends. I hired him for a 90 minute reptile show for Halloween. He showed up on time and had lots of animals. He was great with the kids and adults alike. He was very knowledgeable about the animals but never made it feel like a classroom show. Everyone got lots of time with the animals and all of the reptiles were in perfect health. I can't wait to have another reptile show with him.
