Record keeping
How do you guys keep records of feeds, sheds, weight, length, pairing, etc? I know most of you prob feed once a week but I have one bp once a week and some smaller ones every 5 days. Should I just switch the babies to a 3/4 schedule and make it easy?
Anyway, I was starting a notebook but it wasn't as neat as I wanted. I was going to make a spreadsheet but I wasn't sure what values to put where, so right now I'm debating on a big calendar to write things on. Help? Lol

I also use a custom Database I made in Filemaker Pro
I feed my little BP's every 4 days, and bigger BP's every 8 days. Less complicated and so far has worked great

I use a good ol' regular yearly planner with big spaces in for each day so I can write detailed info for feedings or anything else. Put all my breeder papers, receipts, and vet records in there too.
I feed my smaller ones 5 days, I wouldn't feed any sooner.

I have a notebook. I keep it simple. I use the RDR style and use date and action. If there's a shed, i write it. If they eat, i write it. I weigh at the beginning of every month .

For the top, i use card #, gender, morph, date in, and i write where/who i got the snake from. Very simple.

I used to use a note book but found I'd get behind sometimes and inaccurate records are not very helpful. I switched to this and so far like it. There are things I'd add but generally I think it is very good.

I use an old fashioned college rulled composition book. I have one for each snake.

I have a three ring binder with paper. I keep all my animals info in there. It is easy to add more paper as I need it. I find this works best for me.
