About
SnekLog is a modern, clean, and mobile-friendly web application designed to help reptile keepers of all collection sizes properly document and manage their animals. Built by a passionate reptile keeper, its core philosophy is that better documentation leads to better husbandry and animal welfare. The Reptile Dashboard gives you an at-a-glance view of each animal's key details, including personalized schedules for feeding, shedding, cleaning, weighing, and medications. Quick Events allow you to log feedings for a single animal or an entire room with one click, while the Food List auto-generates a daily feeding plan. SnekLog also features a Photo Gallery (up to 10 high-quality photos per reptile with notes), Clutch Tracking with easy conversion to individuals, customizable event categories, and a full Event History filterable by date range, reptile, or category. Document Printing lets you generate cage cards, reports, and sales certificates in just a few clicks. Because SnekLog is entirely web-based, your collection data is accessible anytime from any device. The app is 100% free — no features are locked behind a paywall, and no user data is shared with third parties. It is sustained solely through voluntary donations via PayPal and Patreon. Regular updates and a detailed user guide make it accessible for new and experienced keepers alike.
