The Reptile Shows of New England Team!
Changing the world one snake at a time.


Jack Berkstresser - TEAM PYTHONAssistant Reptile Handler

Emily (pictured above with Draco) is the backbone of the team, the one who started the business! Without Emily we would not have a show. This young lady is very knowledgeable about the animals we work with and has been handling reptiles for over 12 years! (At 21 years old, that’s saying something!)

Salsabil Hartley - TEAM TURTLEAssistant Reptile Handler

Eryn Berkstresser - TEAM PYTHONAssistant Reptile Handler
This is Eryn. She is Jack’s daughter ( one of our other assistants). She is a strong, smart and sassy young lady. She has been working with these animals since she was 8. She still won’t touch some things, like the tarantulas but it is still pretty impressive for her age. She helps with a lot of shows and is a pleasure to work with.
