Log file of your snakes

What's up everybody!

I'm wondering if i'm the only freak who keep's track of everything related to
his snakes. I mean keeping a log file of when they eat what size when they shed if they were treated for mites or had a preventive shot of Nix their weight with pictures ...

Right now it's all gathered in a folder on my desk top but I'm thinking about
making an Excel file with everything or making individual word document for
every one of them.

Ciao Ciao

Rick

Re: Log file of your snakes

I record it as well, I didn't up until about 3 months ago when I noticed Valentine going off feed. She hasn't fed for three months now and I'm trying to notice a pattern and figure out why. I still don't feel her ribs, and I offer food regularly, so i'm not too worried.

As i've only got three snakes, I just have a word document with a 'feeding' and a 'sheds' section with their names and the relevant info on them.

Re: Log file of your snakes

Hmm I had started doing this when I got my first snake, but didn't manage to keep up with it. In the future though I may consider doing it again because I think it could be really helpful in diagnosing issues

I use this, and I LOVE it https://www.facebook.com/herperpro
I should note that its not just for the private collector, its also designed for reptile business owners, its about 25$.

Re: Log file of your snakes

I'm "old school" lol! I use an excel file. Snakekeeper looks interesting, although I'm not sure I'm in the mood to transfer all my data from excel to the app. Although, much of my life is already on the phone, so I'm sure it will happen eventually!

Hand written. I keep a little pocket-size notebook with each enclosure. I seldom record weight or length, though. Mainly just feeds, sheds, or anything out of the ordinary.
