recoring data

[juviniles_5]

dose any one have a good recording chart for stuff like when they eat when they shed ect... because dont realy want 2 make one so i was wondering if any one could shar theres????:(

You don't want to make one? It's not hard, a spiral notebook and a pen are all you need.

just write down the date and name of the snake (or f1 f2 whatever) and what the snake did, poop, shed, refuse.

for each snake. Not hard to do.

They also have one somewhere that you record on the computer, but i'm not sure where that is.

Just put the word "snake" in the title or else it might get deleted. :)

I just use a calendar. I just write down whatever happened in the space provided for that day.

I would just get a pad and paper like sapphire_moon said. Its really the best way for simple record keeping.

This is probably overkill for one snake, but you could get a Palm Pilot like this one. They start at $250 and run up to about $750. This one that I use is about $500. It also hooks up to your PC (maybe MAC as well?) and uploads all the day's data! Its ROCKS, and saves me about 3-5 hours of work a week! Plus I have access to the data wherever I am.

I just mark my info in my day planner. it is a little unusual when I'm planning out dinner with somebody, and I take out my calendar to mark it down and they see the note "Hux: Biiiig poop!" highlighted in orange. I only have two snakes, and I'm not breeding them yet, so I don't keep really detailed records.

Go to www.thegeckocam.com and download the HCS software. Its great and records all the details you mentioned. I really rely on it's "feed me" function now that I have 10 snakes. When I only had a couple, it was easy to remember when they had eaten, but with so many, I can't keep track. Instead, each day I turn on the computer and look at the "feed me" and it tells me which snakes are due to eat.
