Noise?

[Benjo_08]

Hey everyone!
Before I go pick up my ball python tomorrow I have one question.
My setup is in the living room of my apartment a few feet away from my t.v., do you think the noise from the t.v. will bother the snake? I only have the t.v. on maybe 2 hours out of the day but should I consider moving the setup across the room or maybe into a different room completely??

It might be a good idea. While bp's don't have external ears, they can sense vibrations through their jaw. It could potentially add to stress, especially if you like to watch Steven Seagal movies.

Also, you'll want to consider a location that has low traffic. They don't really like it/get scared by it when people are walking by constantly. Since bp's aren't really show animals, it's good to keep them in a quiet place.

Ball Pythons are deaf. They feel vibrations. I asked this question on a different forum and that was the answer I was given. One of the people played his guitar with an amp and doesnt have any problems, so your TV wont be an issue.

I will PM you the link to when I asked it so I dont get in trouble for breaking any rules or anything.

Sound waves are vibrations.

I have mine right next to my tv (and since I have two toddlers it stays pretty loud) and Mas doesn't seem to mind.
