Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Animal Records Database
There are currently two well-known databases that are dispersed among herpers and breeders:
www.metzcal.com:
www.degei.com
Paper and pencil/pen
Which from your experience is the more reliable software and which is the most extensive?
Of the two which do you prefer? Why?
Do you know of any other software?

Thanks!! The more software we have organized in one place, the greater selection the members will have and ultimately we may all find something that is perfect for us.

The genetic calculator on metzcal looks very interesting. Do any of the other progreams mentioned have any thing like that? And is the one on Metzcal worth its salt? I have been using paper and pencil/pen but would like something else if it is any good.

I've been testing it out with my Ball Pythons because none of these dang programs are compatible with my OS. While I don't like relying on someone else's host to store my data or having to log on to a website to enter data, it's pretty good for a starting program.
Aaron needs to fix some issues with the existing program. I noticed the breeding section isn't working quite right (contacted him twice about it). When you add a breeding it should show up in the males section too, but it's not. Their also needs to be some sort of way to download the data...Monthly data sheets would be great...That way I have copies to file away if something happens to the website.

I am checking out both tracking software today. METZCAL is free, as is a version of the DEGEI.
I also use iherp for my tracking, simply because I stumbled upon the site & thought it was neat. Until then, I had made my own spreadsheets strictly for tracking. I am interested in the features these 2 downloads have; sounds like both are decent.

Metzcal has been updated, and the bug removed. What I like about it ove other freewares, is that it is full featured. Not your basic stuff. I use it and have for a long time. Since back when it was HerpMaster. Great stuff, although it does require some user input. Once a data base has been created though, it can be shared.

I too use Iherp. I find it very easy to use. Aaron is always ready and willing to answer any questions. The site just works well for me. I lookeed into the others posted here, but I'll stick with Iherp.
