    Ball pythons and noise

    Dose noise bother or harm ball pythons or the vibration from it?

    I play drum&bass music for them, they seem to like it, as long as I keep the subwoofer down.

    All snakes are deaf and can't hear at all, but they can feel vibrations.

    Re: Ball pythons and noise

    Snakes aren't actually deaf, but their "hearing" consists primarily of sensing vibrations through the ground. Some studies suggest they may actually be able to hear human voices through the air, but I don't think it's confirmed. I know Naga has gotten upset at me before for vacuuming near his tank, but I'm not sure if that was sound or just vibrating his tank.

    This is an interesting article from 2015 that I read in school - it mentions what range of sounds they can hear- even if it is mostly through vibrations

    No cage is too large - nature is the best template - a snoot can't be booped too much
