    I'm with you, I use steno pad for each.

    I currently have 4 snakes that I record temp and humidity 3 times a day - yes I'm that OCD with some things....I also write notes about poop/urates/sheds/weight and feedings...yes I also weigh my feeders. I just want the best for my collection.

    I've thought about an electronic means of doing this and that would be much easier lol

    IMO that is not a small collection.

    My vote would go to Reptile Scan, purchased it 2 months ago and do not regret it one bit!

    I have close to 50 and it has cut my time by 1/3 its real easy to just go down the list and mark who ate what when I do weights I just do them all at once saves loads of time

    A few questions for those of you that use Reptile Scan if you don't mind...probably stupid questions but it's stuff I do with my silly OCD.

    1. The ability to record temp and humidity 3 times a day for each snake? I tried doing a spreadsheet and plotting a graph but that was a failure as I'm not very computer savvy. LOL

    2. Can I enter stuff like poops/urates/sheds?

    3. Weights for feeding?

    4. I have no intention of breeding.


    Do you have any suggestions with any of the features I may not be aware of?

    I just want an idea of what I'm getting into before I lay out the money for it. THANKS!!!

    Bit the bullet and have to admit, the £15 is worth it. Long as you have some unused phones lying around you can pay £15 once and then load it up onto all the devices. Found a new lease of life for my old S3 and considering whether it would be worthwhile getting a cheap android tablet purely for :cens0r::cens0r::cens0r::cens0r:ing around on the web UI.

    My single complaint would be that the software NEEDS to be used in conjunction with the web based stuff, which is frustrating but not a problem as my second expensive hobby is PC gaming so... but nonetheless.

    A very powerful tool and I look forward to tinkering with it.

    Apologies to those earlier in the thread if it was a major eyeroll/facepalm moment but you can surely agree that £15 for an application with no demonstration version is an understandable "is it worth it and are there any (cheaper) alternatives with the same feature level?"
