A few Odd ended questions

[Compnerd7]

In the construction of my new cage, I have built into the plans my exterior humidifier and so far I have it rigged up to blow air through a large metal dryer pipe. My issue is I am afraid it is going to cause too much of a draft, and the air that comes out is cold. Is this an issue, or is a little breeze on the cold side of the cage not going to affect my Tegu? Cage size is 6X4X4.

Another odd issue I am wondering about is the subwoffers in my room. I have an 8" and 10" subwoffer and I listen to a lot of electronic music, Trance, Drum and Bass, House, Dubstep, ect... I know My Dragons don't care about the Bass, I've had my one Dragon for 10 years and I swear she even likes the vibrations haha. So far my Tegu doesn't seem to mind it at all, he doesn't get scared, hide, or even flinch when I turn the bass up... But I am still concerned it might be stressing him even if there is no exteral signs; Your thoughts?

Anyways, on a less serious note, here is little Dexx today... Today was a day of firsts for him, his very first pinky ( he gladly took from me and swallowed in about 2 seconds haha ) and today I decided to throw some blue berries in there for him and he ate those too!

I'm a metalhead myself and I prefer my music loud enough to make skulls explode and wildebeest stampede all the way in Africa, but since I got Kodo I keep the tunes at a more reasonable volume. Kodo sometimes reacts to the music, which I find fascinating for a reptile. Just don't allow your animals too close to the speakers or you risk blowing their hearing out (literally and figuratively). If you can heart your tanks rattling, it's too loud.

Dex looks legit, I'd keep the music at a low. Wouldn't want to cause problems.

I am also a fan of loud metal and hip hop. I used to have Gurus enclosure in the house, he never seemed bothered by the music. I would guess it depends on the tegu. Gimli is kind of skittish around people, I haven't gotten a chance to work with him because hes been sleeping. I wouldn't have him around louder music, I feel like it would only add to his nervousness.
I can't give much input with the breeze/draft. Gurus enclosure is almost solid except for some circular holes on the sides. The other enclosure has 2 vents.
I like that picture btw, I wish mine were still eating pinkies and fuzzies... A lot cheaper!!!

I've been testing my lizard with my music on / off, loud / quiet, loud bass / soft bass, Higher frequency ( 100+ Hertz ) / Lower Frequency ( 40 - 80 Hertz ), also Rock (Classic and Punk) / Metal / Electronic / Hip Hop - Rap / Not every day as to start a stress out but so far the results have been interesting, but I haven't had enough time to make anything conclusive.

His cage is 7 feet from the speakers / subs and on a 4 foot high stand behind my couch so a lot of the real hard hitting stuff is absorbed before it reaches his cage.

So far higher frequency + loud doesn't seem to phase him. I've been playing a bunch of Dethklok / Led Zeppelin / A.F.I. ( a nice mix of sounds I thought good for a test ) lately and he doesn't seem to mind them one single bit. My next tests are going to be on the real issue, Heavy and Low bass... I hope they go well, for now he is on a break just so I don't stress him out.

I wish my Tegu was a lot bigger eating chicks haha, but I am cherishing the time I have with him while he is small.
