Guinea Pig Trackers

[Chubbywolf]

Hello everyone,

So I have my two guinea pigs with my fiancé and we have been looking for a good way to track everything. Apps, Google Sheets, Notion, etc.. we were wondering what everyone else uses and if they had ant pictures or examples/templates?

I just have their weights written in a notebook!

Same. I just write in a notebook, if I want to remember anything else I write it in the back & make a note of the date. Ie vet trips/medication started & why.

Ditto, I'm old fashioned but I find hard copy much easier.

 

[Posyrose]

I just keep a note on my phone.

Good old paper and pen here too.

Gosh we are behind the times aren’t we

I just write their weights down in a note book each week.

Another one with a notebook and pen for recording weights.

If I still had piggies, definitely paper and pen.

Every year, our friend gifts us a calendar with a diary book/notebook for Christmas. We don't really use any notebooks as we're mainly digital here in the house. But this notebook we get, I use it for guinea pig weights record. That's the only time it's used for!

I used a simple spreadsheet for a while so I could convert the weights and dates into a line graph to show the weight fluctuations of one of my guinea pigs to the vet. Then I’d forget to update it all the time after writing it in my notebook so just stick to that now!

I'm another one with a notebook, it's a thick hard cover one. In the front I have weights and in the back I write notes about illnesses, medications vet visits and my feelings on how illnesses etc have gone. It goes back 12 years and I find the notes in the back fascinating and often helpful.
