I used to. If I recall correctly:

Excel;

Day, time, food item, height/weight (over time, not every time), shed, type of feeding (quick strike, ignoring prey item for excessive amount of time, etc...), temperature (sometimes in the winter they wouldn't eat as often).

Hope that helps. I don't know of any program that's already written, but by now I'm sure there has to be some.

Ive got a reptile specific programme, will look for the disc and probably post it during next week, I will figure out a way to post the programme via e mail or so, but let me first find the disc. its an awsome programme. and as far as I know there is not a copyright on it.

WinZip will zip it and then you can upload it to a sharing server.

Or put it in a folder that LimeWire would recognize and open LimeWire and let us know when it'll be open.

Or the same for a bit torrent site.

OK, go to www.metzcal.com they have everything for you to see there, and the other more basic one is Freeherp, just google it and it will come up easy peasy.

www.1888softwaredownloads.com/free-software/download-free-herp-12311.html , then you go to software downloads, then to Freeherp, and its great for you rescuers too, cos you can then give the software to a person when they adopt an animal, so they can keep accurate records etc. Also the Metzcal allows you to place the link on your website, there are certain terms and conditions, but very minor. sorry for all the short posts!

Bogga,

I can't find a page that has that download. They're all saying that the download is no longer available.

I d/l'ed Metzcal. I can't figure that one out. It appears that all the information is in it but it won't transfer to new files or folders.

Free Herp is no longer available.

I did run across one called HCS (herp care software from http://www.thegeckocam.com

Although, I admit, I haven't looked it over very thoroughly yet.

@Bam scratch maybe I should send you a copy of the disc? Metzcal is excellent for your purposes, as it goes into detail, eg you can input weght, feeding, size enclosure to mention a few.

Lemme know, Im sure its not that expensive to mail, send me you details, and I will make a plan. Help 191391

I sent you my details, but you might want to wait before sending it. Denise was going to send me something and it has yet to get here, so I'm not sure if there's a problem on this end or that and I'd hate for things to just keep going missing across the pond and everyone start throwing good money after bad.
