    Question Do ball pythons like music?

    Im going to the vet for a routine check up which is an hour away, I know snakes have no ears but can pick up on vibrations. Is it ok to play loud music during the drive or should I pass?

    I would pass.
    Those high vibrations could mess with their senses and cause more problems than you need. Just being in the car is stressful enough.

    Well... if you turn it on and your snake starts to headbang... then you know he likes it!


    All joking aside... i probably wouldn't turn it up to loud, its okay to have some on but don't blare it

    I'd keep it to a reasonable volume... If you have subs or something you should maybe keep the bass down. They can get pretty stressed out with too much vibration.

    I think you should be fine to listen to music at a decent level, provided you don't have a loud, hard thumping bass system.

    All of my ball pythons are in my son's room.
    My son plays the electric guitar.
    We are now redesigning the garage to make a place for him, his guitars and his amps.
    Nuff said.

    Do you always drive around with your radio blaring to the point you couldn't just go without it that loud for one vet trip? I keep baked potatoes in my car for people like you. If it's Slayer or something, then nevermind, but I have a feeling we're talking about some DnB or Master P or Celine Dion or something. J/K. No, I wouldn't have it that loud with a snake in the car.
    What are these mojavas I keep hearing so much about?
