i guess you could do one on excel (the spread sheet one i think) or just do a table in word and keep adding to it

I do mine on excel. Five sheets:

Food
Shed
Size
Husbandry
Health

Each page has a date column and any other necessary clumns, including one for comments such as "clean shed" or say in the food sheet, what size mouse. Can e-mail you a copy if you want.

I used to use 'Herp Care Software' from theGeckoCam.com

Click to download 6mb .exe setup

Link is directed at my skydrive, as site was unresponsive for me earlier

metzcal is supposed to be very good, if a little overwhelming - i tried it once but it was way too much for my needs so i gave up.

its a freebie download from http://www.metzcal.com/

i put all mine on just a regular calendar...... but it's unusual for me to feed more than 5 or 6 in one go so there's plenty of room

i've heard bad things about Herp Care Software that it has wiped out entire records for no apparent reason :S

i've given up keeping records now, all but 3 of mine feed every time so its easy to remember :)

I have tables printed from word that i stick on the inside of my snakie cupboard that records their length, weight, feeding record, viv cleaning and shedding. they all have a sheet each and i have an empty version saved on my pc so that when one is flled up it gets put in a folder and i can print a fresh one.

i use a supermarket note book. just nomber the pages 1-4 ( 1 for each snake ) leave them a whole page back and front then start again 1-4 and so on.
i did start to use spred sheets on the pc but thb it took me longer that way and at least with a book it's a quick reference if the pc's not on ( which isn't very often, with two teenagers in the house there's always a laptop on somewhere !) but getting access to it is a different matter, my eldest thinks msn will cease to exist if is not constantly signed in.
