Hi everyone, I have gone from not having snakes for many years to collecting 3 over the last 6 months. The latest arrival is a hatchling. Younger than anything I have had before so looking for some advice about care and how best to keep records for them all.

Re: First Timer

I have an excel book set up with a sheet that has basic info for all my pets then each animal has its own sheet to keep detailed records (weights, lengths, feeds so on and so forth) I'm kind of anal about spreadsheets though.

Re: First Timer

Thanks everyone. Spreadsheets sounds good - though its the extra things that are problamatic like my 6 week old hatchling surprising me by climbing up the back wall of her viv appears to like climbing

Re: First Timer

Hello and welcome! I use iHerp to keep records, I like that it's online so I can look it up on any of my devices from anywhere.
