I was wondering if any of you pass on your records to the new owner when you sell your snakes?

I dont mean just a card with the last month or so on I mean a full since you aquired said snake book.

Was just interested as we keep a seperate book for each of ours just so we dont forget who has what and when, keeping an eye on when they shed and their weights.

I dont feed on the same day every week for all of them. They are all on different time frames due to having hatchlings and adults.

I was just wondering as I know some have larger collections and was wondering how you kept track of everything. Dont know how I would keep track without the books lol And before anyone says yes I am blonde and my memory is lousy but thats a whole other story

Yep, every one of my snakes has its own book. Feeds, sheds, weights, breeding info, any vet info and, for boas and pythons poo info too! If I sell the snake, the book goes with them as a full feeding, breeding and health record.

I also feed on varying days due to my shift patterns, and keep a calender on the wall that says who fed when, and who is due to feed, and who declined to feed. I know what items to get out to defrost each day without going through all the diaries, and can see at a glance who I can get out to handle. Dont know what I'd do without both diaries and calender.
