    How much information do you keep?

    As expand my collection I am using i herp and probably will also maintain cards for them. But how much information do you keep? I see a long list of options in the tracking which is a good thing but it seems it would be allot to track everything...

    I just keep track of feeding, shed, cleaning and water change... should i track more thing if so what?

    Re: How much information do you keep?

    Honestly I think that list of things to track is pretty good. When feeding I keep track of what size food was fed, f/t, fresh or live. I don't keep track of my water changing though. I do it every other day, and if I don't remember if I did it or not, then I change it. Of course if my collection was larger, I would keep track of that.

    For my collection I track Feed / Pairing / Copulation / Ovulation / Pre-lay Shed and clutch being laid (I do so with Degei).

    Animals that are being sold I keep track of Feed / Shed / Defecation on each animal's card.
