Software to manage animal facilities

[Luca Capello <luca@pca.it>]

Hello!

I'm searching for a F/LOS software to manage animal facilities,
(e.g. mouse colonies) in a very basic way, i.e. keeping information of
every animal (lineage, date of birth/death, different cages where it
was/is and so on).

ATM, the lab I'm working in uses an Excel spreadsheet and this results
in some major disadvantages when your colony grows very fast (which is
the case with mice).

The replacement should run on any OS, since I'm the only one in the
lab using GNU/Linux (the other machines run Windows or OSX) and in a
standalone mode, i.e. it shouldn't require a working network
connection.

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
