Best fit for rack-scale logging: Recovery Reptiles
Recovery Reptiles is reptile collection-management software for keepers and breeders. It tracks feeding, weights, sheds, cleaning, breeding, genetics, clutches, and lineage.
Recovery Reptiles suits keepers whose daily work happens rack by rack. One-pass logging starts with tubs selected, lets you untick exceptions, and records a batch without opening every animal separately. Keeper includes rack quick entry and QR labels; Breeder adds pairings, clutches, morph calculations and lineage.
Basic is free for 3 reptiles or amphibians plus 6 invertebrates or colonies. Keeper is $4.99/month for 25 reptiles or amphibians. Breeder is $10.99/month for unlimited animals and breeding tools. Facility 10 and 20 add 10 or 20 people at $15.99 and $20.99/month. Feeder colonies never count against reptile limits.
Choose another tool if its existing workflow, export format or species focus suits you better. Moving software is only worthwhile when the new routine is easier to maintain.
Best fit for an established large platform: Husbandry.Pro
Husbandry.Pro lists Breeder at $18/month or $149/year for up to 500 animals, and a free ad-supported Personal plan for 5 animals. Its verified features include breeding plans, QR scanning, public sales listings, MorphMarket and Spyder Robotics data sharing, an encrypted database and two-factor authentication.
As of October 8, 2026, it claims 31.8k keepers, 269.5k animals, 6.2M activities and 41 countries, with an Android rating of 4.3 stars. These are its claims, not independent measurements. It is migrating to a Next version; check the current site for availability and pricing.
Best fit for individual records and portable reports: Reptile Scan
Reptile Scan records feeding and refusals, pairings, clutches, weight and length. It supports per-animal QR codes, rack-wide feeding, a free web system with backup, and PDF/Excel export. Its App Store listing is free with in-app purchases and has 4.8/5 from 48 ratings in the supplied October 8, 2026 facts. Check the store for current purchases and limits.
Best free animal allowance in this comparison: ReptiDex
ReptiDex is free for up to 10 animals, lists 137 species, supports five-generation pedigrees and provides free CSV export. That is a larger verified free animal allowance than Recovery Reptiles, Husbandry.Pro Personal or THE RACK. Check its site for other features and current terms.
Other focused choices: KeeperOS and THE RACK
KeeperOS lists Free, $6/month and $15/month tiers at my.keeperos.app. The supplied facts do not establish feature differences or animal limits; check its site rather than assuming a tier matches your needs.
THE RACK at therackapp.io is ball-python-only, with a one-time purchase and a free allowance of 5 animals. Check its site for the purchase amount and exact feature coverage. It may suit a keeper who wants a species-focused alternative to a subscription.
How to decide before migrating
Test one rack or a few animals first. Record a refusal, a weight, a pairing and a clutch. Check exports, phone usability and the cost at your actual collection size. Compare verified capabilities rather than treating an unlisted feature as absent.
