Tick what goes into the book. Where there is more to set, a step of its own follows.

On every day Record a value from 0 to 4 every day For example cough, lameness or itching. Comes with the scale at the front and the year at a glance. Untick it for a logbook without complaints. Field for the temperature ‘T ___ °C’ in every day row Record medication A ‘Med / Dose / AM Mid PM’ row on every day and the ‘Regular medication’ page. Untick it for one more writing line per day. Feed row on every day A ‘Feed’ row with a box per meal to tick off. Costs one writing line per day. Boxes to tick Up to three per day, for example ‘Rest, Eating, Work’ (when the cough occurs) or ‘Riding, Lunging, Paddock’ Several people make entries An ‘Initials’ field in every day row and a list of initials at the front to fill in by hand. Untick it if only you make entries.

Pages of their own A month at a glance before every month A double page: the month on the left with a box for every day, room for notes on the right. Two more pages per month. ‘Who comes when’ plan A grid with every day of the period at the front, to fill in by hand – for sharers, carers or holidays: whose turn is it on which day? ‘Feeding plan’ page A table to fill in by hand: what is fed at which meal (‘2 kg hay’). Your regular medication is already in it, because it is usually given with the feed.
