    DoOpen a cage with a few sample animals in it, and choose Print cage card.

    SayEvery cage in a mouse room needs a card. Here is how I make one in ConductColony.

  2. 0:08

    DoShow the card: the strain, the census of males and females, each animal with its ear tag, and the next cage change.

    SayThe card fills itself in from the cage: the strain, how many males and females, each animal's ear tag and age, and the next cage change.

  3. 0:20

    DoPrint it, or show the print preview.

    SayThen I print it. Nothing is copied by hand, so the card matches the record.

  4. 0:35

    DoScan the QR code with a phone camera. It opens that cage once you sign in.

    SayThe QR code on the card opens this cage on a phone. Scan it, sign in, and the cage's record is right there.

  5. 0:50

    DoSay that cage cards come with the free plan, and where to find ConductColony.

    SayCage cards come with the free plan. Find ConductColony at conductcolony.com.

What viewers should learn

A cage card printed from the colony record matches the record, and its QR code opens the cage on a phone.

Try it before you film

Open it first: Cage cards on conductcolony.com. That page shows what a card holds. Printing one needs a free account: add a cage with a few sample animals first.

Use sample animals and IDs you make up, not a real colony. Never show real participants, children, patients, private records or unpublished results. Get permission before you film at your school or workplace, or name it. The handbook has the rest.
