 Do blue tongued skinks like Guns N Roses?

Hey, I have a Northern blue tongued skink, female, male, I’m not sure yet, lol, and I’m wondering how loud my stereo can be in my room. He/she is very receptive to everything going on, and I want to make sure that if somebody turns on my stereo it’s not too loud. Or should I just use my headphones to listen to my music?

I don’t think that any animal wants sounds too loud-it can be scarey for them. Use your headphones when you can and otherwise keep the music to a medium range. If someone in the room with you can’t hear you talk, then the music is too loud.

I try to keep stereo/TV/ etc about the same volume that a group of people having a conversation right in the room would be. Not necessarily a whispered conversation, but if you’re not sure if it’s loud or not, err on the side of caution. As time goes by, if you notice him completely ignoring the stereo and begging for food, then it’s probably safe to bring it up a notch if you want to. It might turn out to not even be a big deal to him. Or it might depend on a lot of variables such as what time of day/night it is.
No sure about Guns n Roses specifically, but I did have an iguana that seemed to love the goofy background background music to Frank Zappa’s "Token of My Extreme." Well, so I thought at the time. In retrospect, I think it triggered off some kind of territorial-bobbing display that just happeend to LOOK really cute... One of the problems with lizards is that they have so much body language, but often what it LOOKS like it means.. just isn’t it.
