Log book?

Anyone else keep a log book on their snakes?

I've had one for Jinx since day one. I write down what he ate, what time he ate, and if he is acting any different or if he is going blue or has shed, etc.
I just started another book for Sebastian.

I use a program called freeherp. I keep track of lengths, weights, feedings and sheds for all 26 snakes.

same as shelby it is a god program and its free, well the trial vercion

Not a BOOK, persay... but record CARDS. I put them up on the site so everyone can use them if wanted. I also keep records in Metzcal on one computer, and FreeHerp on another.... just so everything's double backed up. :)

Here's a link to the record cards.. they're for 4x6 index cards:

I use Degei, which has a free trial version as well. Freeherp is also good. =)

i use a journal. just quick notes each feed, shed, vet check, sassy or unusual behavior.
i might try the whole freeherp thingy. beats trying to go back and read my handwriting in the dark

i just keep track of mine by a 5 x 7 index card that i put by their tub. i monitor shed, feeding, defecation, and weight.

Degei full version for me!

I do it all by hand on record cards, and I made a spreadsheet in Excel. Data entry takes a while, but I can still manage. I've been wanting to put a copy of my card on my site as well. Maybe when I get home in a coupke weeks I'll post it on the site.

I use Degei full version, I tried freeherp and found too many things I felt were missing, I went to Degei free version and liked it so I bought the full version.
