I started writing this post on the 8th of November and have just now gotten around to finishing it.

Figuring out what my snails are doing and why is getting close to impossible. I’ve got snails eating each other, or refusing to eat proper food, or for some reason not mating even though their sex drive should be pretty high. I used to print stuff out to one big default log file (laravel.log), but this soon became unmanageable because I was printing logs associated with multiple actions for multiple snails at the same time.
