    its the sex of the animal

    1.0.0 or 1.0 = 1 male
    0.1.0 or 0.1 = 1 female
    0.0.1 = 1 unsexed or unknown

    As Subliminal said, it is a sort of shorthand to indicate the sex of the animals.

    For another example, if I'm correct you have 2 boys and 2 girls for your dogs, a female cat, and your unsexed BP, you could write:
    2.2 dogs, 0.1 cat, and 0.0.1 BP.

    If you have other questions about what things mean, this thread is a good place to look. It is full of all sorts of herp related acronyms and abbreviations, and is stickied in the "general herp" section.
