Working on a revised version right now. I can't believe that I forgot to add weight on the chart. *DUH!* :O
I'll post the links in a few minutes....
Re: My Records Keeping System for my BP.
Revised version of snake journal page.
I left out a few categories ;) Apparently I shouldn't have been in such a hurry to get the first one done. I've also added a link for an XLS File so the spreadsheet can be saved and changed to suit each individuals needs. :D

Thank you! :D I appreciate all of the comments and suggestions. I'm glad that I was able to share a version that could be changed per users preferences as well. Credit goes to my hubby on that! ;)
Re: My Records Keeping System for my BP.
i'm using a pen & a 5 subject notebook, lol. call me simple but it works for me. each subject in this notebook contains info on certain things going on with the snake's care/setup...
1)feeding/eating log (where i record feeding dates, times and what happens)
2)shed log (where i write down shed dates & any problems/concerns)
3)weight/growth log (where i will keep track of my girl's growth & weight...i dont actually have the scale yet but that's in february's budget)
4)temperature log (where i keep track of dates, times & temps on the warm & cool side in the terrarium)
5)humidity log (where i keep track of dates, times and humidity readings in the terrarium)
i decided to do this cuz if i ever need to take my girl to the vet i have any & all care information regarding my snake that the vet might ask for. also for my own peace of mind as well.
oh & on the front of my notebook, i have some other info regarding my girl - species, morph, sex, hatch date, purchase date & the name of her breeder.

I was handwriting notes. Now I just print out my blank pages, hole punch them and put them into a three ring binder. I am still hand filling in the pages. I just feel more organizing this way and can easily reference info too.
I have several animals that I do this for. I rescue exotics so it's important for me to stay systematic and organized. I have a lot of information that I need to be able to access and it also helps when one is re-homed to be able to send the info with them. I think the system is easy to read even for someone who is not familiar with it and its handy for the vets too.
I think as long as one keeps records it doesn't matter how its done. It's the record keeping itself that is important.
