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.

Which workflow fits your room?

Choose Recovery Reptiles when one-pass rack care, genetics and your own collection records are the priority. Husbandry.Pro is worth evaluating when its established platform, two-factor authentication or documented Spyder Robotics and MorphMarket data sharing matter to you. Recovery Reptiles links out to MorphMarket listings; it does not provide two-way MorphMarket data sharing.

No undocumented competitor feature is marked as absent. Check Husbandry.Pro's current site during its Next migration and try both workflows before moving your records.
