    Good Tracking App?

    So with my new second addition, I decided it would probably be good to keep a decent track of how everything is going, now that I need to remember things for two snakes. Originally, I was just plugging different things into a google sheet for Paarthurnax, but needless to say this got easy to forget about and was also kind of...dull? Also tried writing on pencil and paper, which is good and I probably will always keep things as a backup, but since my phone is always in my pocket, I was hoping to find something there.

    I'm sure that this question has been asked multiple times, but when I searched around, most of the threads based on it were at least a good few years old. Does anyone know of a good app to help track feeding, using the bathroom, sheds, etc?

    I use Track My Reptile. But honestly I find a good old notebook better because none of the apps have every option you need. And I only have 1 snake too.

    I’ve used Snake Keeper since late last year. It’s alright. Free if you’re only recording for one snake, I think it’s $2-3 to record multiple animals.

    Re: Good Tracking App?

    I know you asked for digital, but what I do it get one of those flip books and put snake A's pic on one side and snake B's pic on the other. I log weights and sheds on their respective sides. On the inside cover I printed out the ball python food size/weight chart and stuck it there. I've done it ever since I got my first, and for my cresties too. Works well for me!

    I use paper and pencil- it's much quicker. Far superior from my perspective than something electronic that can crap out anytime. People use apps or sites regularly, just not my thing.

    Re: Good Tracking App?

    I too have been thinking about a digital way to track so I thank you for asking.

    I currently use steno pads to record temps/humidity 3 times a day (yeah I know I'm OCD) and mark weights/sheds/urates/poops/feedings/etc when they occur. Unfortunately with 6 snakes, and more coming, this is getting to be a bit much.

    I also use a notebook. I think it's easier for a vet to see a trend on paper. Plus it's easier for me with three snakes.
