Get your geek on and make a growth chart!

Do you keep weight records for your snake? Make a chart and share! Just go into excel and enter the date in one column, and the corresponding weight in the next column. Highlight the data and make a line graph. TIP: To have the graph as a picture, just copy and paste into Word. Then, right click it in Word and "Save as Picture". Thought it might be fun and interesting to see.

I got Sneak on Sept. 21, 2011. I believe her hatch date to be sometime the end of Aug/beginning of Sept. 2011. I probably could have labeled it better to show her age but 1) I don't know it with complete accuracy and 2) I'm not very good with excel As long as you give an estimate for hatch date it should be pretty useful, I would think.

I'm interested to see others!

This is a great idea.

I have an Excel full of those But most not from birth.

We chart our snakes growth weekly. I just use graph paper.

But on graph paper you can't post it here I just thought since there really can't be a standardized growth chart for snakes (since so many factors are involved in their growth and ultimate size), it would at least be interesting for people to see a collection of data to check out.

Growth charts from hatchling to adult would be especially interesting, because you could see the growth rate and then see it eventually level off. I just think it's cool

A bunch of interesting ones I think: some from hatchling to adult, some with only a couple of years of adulthood, some breeding females.

Thanks for the idea--that's really cool! I keep track of my snakes' weight and I do use the Degei software program, but when you use the growth chart function the dates get screwed up and they all overlap--I can't figure out how to fix it. This is better and I'm going to try it--thanks again for the helpful post!
