Sensitivity + Sound

[lucky7]

How sensitive are leopard geckos to loud noises, songs, or people talking during the day (their night time?) how bout at night..

does it cause stress?? just wondering sometimes I play music and he comes out, other times I play it and he is hiding away.

talking people doesn't seem to bother him.. he is in my bed room... so..


any ideas??

4 yr old leopard gecko, diego, see my photos + etc. male,

thanks.

I'm wondering the same thing.

I think it depends on your gecko, i have 3 Leos myself and all 3 have different likes and dislikes.

I think quiet and dark is what they prefer the best! I have them in my front room and it gets a fairly good amount of traffic thru there, but 12 hours of the day, it is silent except for the crickets in the keeper lol.

i crumpled up a brown lucnh bag the crickets come in one time and my scaredy cat mean male freaked out ( he was in his hide and the hide moved) and my other one didnt do anything (out in open).. this was during the day and they are in my bedroom also

i have been holding mine when people are talking or the dog barked and she just sat there like it was no big deal, but one day i did see her actually get startled by a loud noise, she took of running for a hide.

Same here, everytime my husband crunch up either paper or plastic bag, one of my male will be scared and will dash back into his hide. The others are fine though...but I feel they're more sensitive to these sort of sound.
