Testudo Weight Recorder with Jackson calculation and graphs
After CrazyChris2409 pointed out a spreadsheet that could be used to record weights and measurements this gave me the idea to create my own, thanks Chris.
This spreadsheet will:
If you want to record weights for multiple tortoises just right click on the weight recorder tab and select move/copy and choose to make a copy of it. I realise this has probably all been done before by other people but I felt like flexing some Excel skills so knocked this up. It should work in any version of Microsoft excel - 2000,2003,2007,2010 You can download it here By the way the measurements and weights in the picture are just made up - Vincent is much more natural in real life

Sounds good, ill have a look at it when I get home.. I'm pretty sure the Jackson ratio isn't for horsfields but will be ok as a rough estimate .. Thanks

Well if there are any other ratios for other tort species I can easily put them into another version of this - just need to tell me where to find the details about them and I'll happily do it

Thanks I've downloaded this will give this a try tomorrow!
Does excel just work out the jackson ratio itself then? |

Yes - all the colour coding and calculations are automatic. All you have to do is enter: tortoise name and DOB then the date, SCL and the weight for the readings Just delete the stuff thats already in there and put in your own details and data

Of course if anyone has any formulas they use themselves they would like to tell me about I can easily drop them into the spreadsheet.
