I have that list printed out and in a binder, along with safe food, safe/usafe wood and a bunch of other things. It's a really good list.

I also have a binder that I keep useful information in. I need to reorganize it though cause I have added alot to it. I also have a 5 subject notebook that I keep track of my hermies in. I put there name, sex, date bought, and where bought at the top of the page. Then I list when they go down for a molt and when they resurface. What shell they came in and any they change into. If they have legs missing and when they regrow. Everything about them. When they pass on I move them to into the binder so I can keep their info.

Thats such a great idea. im bad with journals but ive started a hermie journal. i fill up the pages pretty quickly. I put in the foods they like and foods they havent had yet and i should get for them to try. i put in there how theyre doing whos molting whos sick and how active they are that day. i think im going to try out the binder idea.

I also have that in my binder. I have what food and toys they like, what shells they move into, molting info (when it happens), and tons more. I even have my receipts for my hermit crabs. I don't know why I do, just because they're my first one's I guess. It's very useful. I can look back to see what foods they like of dislike if I can't remember.

its like a baby book lol

Haha, exactly. I like keeping track of animals. I think it's fun. I'm kind of striving to be a marine biologist. Even though land hermit crabs don't really go with that, it's still amusing.

I took a marine bio class in high school. it was the best class ever. I want to do something with animals but ive been going to school to be an elementary school teacher.if i change my major the credits won't carry over.
