    Pet journal

    So I started keeping track of my pets daily, stuff that is notable sheds, poops and anything else that is notable. Does anyone else do this?

    Sorry for the typos, I have large thumbs and they make typing difficult.

    I journalize feedings, if a regurge happens, if there is a rejection, weight, & sheds of my snake pets. I would only note poops if the poop looked weird though.

    I keep a pocket size notebook for each of my snakes. I record feeding dates, whether they ate or refused, type of prey (rat, mouse, prey weight, ft, live, etc). I also record when they shed, and when they poop. Usually the same day they poop, I get an empty weight and log that as well. I like to see a broken down progression of their growth.

    Other than that, I put any random notes I deem necessary like anything out of the ordinary or concerning in case they need a vet visit.

    I think when I start breeding, I'll print up log sheets for babies with their picture and information then keep notes in a binder. That way I have something less bulky but equally informative to give to anyone I sell a hatchling to.

    I used to years ago but I can't seem to find that template I used back then so I'm going to have somebody who's really good in excel make me another template. I was using a program but it's just a little too much info that I won't use and a few other things that I'm not set on about it. I'll only keep track of feed, shed, weight, weight of food, how much food and stuff like that. I won't keep track of pee or poo because I have 3 of my snakes in the same tanks together.
