Noise polution

[dhehir]

Hi All,

I am looking to set up my first chameleon flexarium. Now after a lot of online research I have decided on my kit list and am nearly good to go. My one remaining obstacle is where to put it. I have an outhouse in the back garden that would be perfect, but is home to a couple of pc's an xbox and a teenager! who has a tendency to crank his music/gaming up far to loud.

I think I already know the answer but was wondering how a Yemen/veiled cham would cope with such an environment.

Thanks for reading.

There so close to def Its unreal. They can feel heavy vibrations but not noise.. they make up for it with tremendous eye sight. Video game noise is good about vibrations and flailing teenagers can be stressful. Don't worry about noise but too much traffic can be stressful. At leadt put the cage as high up as u can. Chams feel safe way up high.. but still low traffic is heavily recommended.

Chams are essentially deaf.

They can feel vibrations but not loud sounds.
