    BP husbandry software
    Does anyone reccomend a specific record keeping software or freeware? I have been using 3x5 cards and seems to be working fine, but now with 12ish (I dont even know exactly how many I have, some are on their way :)) its already getting hectic

    I use iHerp for all my tracking, it's a very cool, free website dedicated to keeping records for your animals. www.iherp.com

    I've also checked out Vyper tracking software, which looks pretty cool:http://www.vypersoft.com/
    But I didn't end up getting it since they don't have a Mac version:(

    I use iHerp.com also, it's great for tracking multiple reptiles.

    I use Degei. I have three BP's and it has plenty of features that I don't even use.

    It tracks feeding, breeding, selling, etc. It's different than iherp in that it isn't internet based, and you just install it and can back it up on your computer.

    Just try a few out and see which one you like and fits your needs best!

    Good luck!

    I used iHerp but got burnt when it crashed :( We are making something now to help with this in the future

    It will be the tracker that iHerp is but also have the ability to print the cards on the tubs. Lots to work on still but I am excited. Road map is on the site for release.

    Degie Its a good tracker. The free "Trial" is good for up to 5 animals

    Vyper There Free trial is only good for 30 days BUT its only $25. There currently not letting you purchase the full version as they have a new version that should be out anytime (According to you there site)


    Simple Animal Tracker They are in the process of making this and Im EXTREMELY excited to see how it turns out

    Iherp I havent played much with this but to me it seems like a pain if you have several animals, I know there system has crashed and I personally dont like some one to just look up all the info on my animals if they want

    You have been teasing us with this forever!

    I thought about checking the site out, but I think I'd feel a little exposed tracking every little thing about my snakes online. I am a tad paranoid though. I keep a gun hidden in my snake room just in case anyone breaks in :P

    LMAO, Spitzu! I keep my gun SAFE with all my guns in my snake room, lol! As far as tracking software, I have no idea. Was glad to see this thread though, as I'm planning to add 6 more in the near future to the 2 I currently have and tracking will become an issue when I do.

    +1 for iHerp. I think they have a setting that allows you to make your tracking private.

    iHerp DOES have a privacy button where you can hide tracking if you wanted. Also as far as crashing, I haven't had this issue yet but I print out my tracking every month and keep them in folders so I have them if I needed.

    :hijackd:LOL, I like being the "crazy" neighbor!! There is one gun in every room in our house, yes even if I am in the bathroom "doing business" I wont have to get up.:O Our son has been shooting since he was 6 and he is 15 now. I would rather be prepared than wishing I had done it different;) Just hope if anything ever happens, the adrenaline rush is enough to shoot a 12g sitting down:confused::hijackd:

    LOL, I have my .357 magnum on me AT ALL TIMES, except when I am sleeping, then it is on the nightstand right beside the bed. It is pretty sad what this world has come to, but I will never be in a situation where I wish I was packing (because I always am)

    From my experiences thus far, I think most people would find the snakes the bigger deterrent. :P
