    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.

    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:

    Re: Log book?

    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.
