How Do You Keep Track of Sheds, Feeding, Etc.?

I use 3x5 index cards taped to the lower left front of each enclosure, I keep information such as the last date fed, last shed, year of birth, when acquired and purchase price, the cards look a bit sloppy though.
What are you using?

Index cards with the name, species, date of birth (or date of purchase). I keep these in a two filing folders, a slot designated for each animal.

Just be warned, it's free for one snake but if you want to add multiples it's $1.99

I used to keep track of everything but now I don't bother. If I had 20 snakes or a batch of baby snakes I would keep more records but with 9 and only 2 snakes off the common feed interval ... I keep it in my head.

Funny you want to track all of this but won't spend $2 on a program to do it. Is $2 seriously asking to much for what your looking for right on your cell phone?

To copy Terranaut here... Wouldn't it be cheaper to buy the App? Eventually you'll go buy more index cards, right? And then some more. Right? And then even more? It's worth the $2, imo. Btw: does anyone know of an app like that for Android?

I dont bother anymore, did at first but now i only make a note if someone refuses more than one feed or has an "off" bowel movement.
