Reaction to sounds and noises

[yolobrat]

I'm in the process of getting a chameleon, I have vivarium with all equipment needed, but now I have a question about the position of it...I'm a classical guitarist, going to music academy and I practise 5-10 hours a day. Its classical guitar and classical music, so it is not very loud or agressive, but can it be a stress trigger for a chameleon if it's in a same room as I am?

Not likely to bother the chameleon at all. They hear very low frequencies.

Some species do react to vibrations a bit though.

Veileds make vibrations as a part of their communication...

I have a veiled and I listen to all genres of music (all frequencies and different instruments) from a speaker on my wall. My cham never really reacts to it no matter what volume. That is just my personal experience, but you may get a different chameleon with different preferences and sensitivities. I was curious about the same thing too a few weeks ago but I think it is just an, 'every individual is different' kind of situation.
I don't doubt that my chameleon can't hear my music, especially the bass tones, but its just that she doesn't react. I make sure not to blast the music anyway so it doesn't make her too uncomfortable.

Whether it reacts or not will depend on the individual chameleon and the vibrations being made.
