Snakes and music

the nerve May 31, 2003 06:12 PM

How to kingsnakes and corn snakes deal with music and electrical instruments? Snakes don't have great hearing but they can pick up bass vibrations and louder volumes pretty well. I'll be getting a king or milk in the next couple weeks, and I like to listen and play rock music, but not excessively. My bearded dragon seemed to be fine with it, but are snakes especially sensitive to occassional loud music? Do they get used to it? Can I reduce vibrations in the cage?

I would play the music away from the snakes or get a pair of heavy duty headphones. Heavy vibrations will stress the snakes and I have heard of people's snakes not eating due to such conditions. Andy

Live in a garden apartment (partially underground). Whenever the lawn crew comes by on their mowers she sticks her head out of her hide to check out the ruckus. When they're gone she retreats back into hide. Doesn't seem stressed at all, just curious.
