Monty: Ball Python Manager
Breeding, Genetics & Husbandry
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad
Track every animal, predict every clutch, manage every sale; morph genetics, breeding tools, financial tracking & iCloud sync. Built by a keeper, for keepers.
Monty is the all-in-one collection manager built specifically for ball python keepers and breeders. No spreadsheets. No generic pet apps. Just purpose-built tools that understand your hobby.
Whether you keep 3 pets or breed 200+ animals across multiple seasons, Monty scales with you — from first feed to final sale.
COLLECTION MANAGEMENT
Add animal profiles with photo, morph, sex, maturity, status, and notes. Search by ID, name, or morph. Filter by status, sex, and maturity. Track animals still in your care with the In Collection toggle, even after they're sold.
MORPH GENETICS DATABASE
Every morph colour-coded by inheritance type. Allelic complexes fully mapped with real-time conflict detection — the morph picker won't let you create impossible combinations. Super and Het forms generated automatically. Search by alias — YB, DG, OD all resolve instantly.
GENETICS CALCULATOR
Predict clutch outcomes with Mendelian Punnett square calculations. Handles allelic complexes correctly. Pos het probabilities (50%, 66%, 100%) per recessive locus. Pick parents from your collection or enter morphs manually.
HET INTELLIGENCE
Monty tracks the genetics you can't see. Auto-suggested hets when recording hatchling morphs, guaranteed morph detection from homozygous parents, and het discovery alerts when visual recessives prove a parent het. Confirm with one tap and the parent's record updates automatically.
BREEDING SEASON MANAGEMENT
Organise pairings by season. Automated 6-status lifecycle (Planned → Paired → Locked → Gravid → Laid → Hatched) derived entirely from your data — no manual status picking. Track introduction/separation sessions, locks, clutches, and individual eggs. Add hatchlings directly to your collection from the egg form with ID, name, sex, and hold-back flag.
FEEDING SCHEDULES & BATCH FEEDING
Per-animal feeding frequency with customisable prey presets. Dashboard shows overdue and due animals at a glance. Batch feed your entire collection in seconds — check the animals, hit save, done.
RACK & TEMPERATURE MONITORING
Log temperature and humidity per rack level. Configurable safe range with out-of-range alerts on your dashboard. Celsius and Fahrenheit supported. Export temperature logs as A4 PDF for UK licensing inspections.
FULL FINANCIAL TRACKING
10 categories including animal sales with deposit and partial payment tracking, HMRC mileage at 45p/mile, receipt photos, and courier tracking. Track every sale from initial deposit to final payment — Monty handles the balance automatically. Income, expense, and profit summaries. GBP, USD, and EUR.
EXPORT & REPORTS
CSV and PDF export for your collection, breeding records, temperature logs, and transactions. Date range filtering on every report. A4 PDF format ready for council inspections, HMRC, or your accountant. Export individual animal records directly from their profile.
DASHBOARD
9 customisable cards: collection stats, temperature alerts, feeding status, incubator countdown, breeding status, het discoveries, financial summary, reminders, and recent activity. Toggle any card on or off. iPad gets a two-column layout.
SUBSCRIPTION TIERS
Start free with up to 5 animals and explore every feature. Monty+ (£4.99/month) supports up to 30 animals with expanded limits. Monty Pro (£9.99/month) removes all limits — unlimited animals, transactions, and reports with no ads.
PRIVACY FIRST
All data stored locally on your device with automatic iCloud sync to your private account. No sign-up required. No servers. No tracking. Your data is yours.
Works on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Dark mode by default — built for the snake room.
