HerdCard: Cattle & Calving Log

HerdCard keeps a record for every animal in a small beef herd, on one card you can read at arm's length. It works offline, because a pasture rarely has a signal. There is no account to make and nothing to log into: your records stay on your phone. WHAT IT DOES Cattle records - Tag number in large type, with a photo, breed, sex, age, dam and sire - The last weight, the gain since the weigh-in before it, and the next expected calving, on the card - Groups for pastures, lots and pens Calving calendar - An estimated calving window from a bull turn-in and turn-out date, or an estimated date from an insemination date - Set the gestation length used for the estimate. The default is 283 days - Calving ease, birth weight and the outcome on the dam's own record - A month calendar with the windows painted across it Treatment records and withdrawal dates - Product, lot or serial number, dose, route, injection site, reason and who gave it - Enter meat and milk withdrawal separately, with milk also accepted in hours - The end date sits in red on the card until it passes - A reminder on the withdrawal end date you entered - A booster reminder on the interval you enter Weights - A chute session that takes a tag, a weight, and moves to the next animal - Average daily gain between the last two weigh-ins - An adjusted 205 day weaning weight The sale - Sale, death or cull, with buyer, weight and price - In the full version, recording a direct-to-slaughter sale inside the meat withdrawal you entered requires a written reason - A cost per head over any date range, from the expenses you record Reports - Herd, calving, treatment, weight and sales reports as a PDF - CSV export - One backup file that holds every record and every photograph, and restores on another phone WHO IT IS FOR Cow-calf operations of 5 to 100 head. Smallholders, part-time ranchers, and anyone who keeps the herd record in a pocket notebook and a spreadsheet at tax time. HOW IT IS SET UP The standard tier holds 30 active animals. Recording a sale, a death or a cull frees a slot. Records you have already made stay readable and editable whatever tier you are on: the limit is on adding another animal, and nothing is ever hidden or deleted. Reports, CSV export and the sale check are part of the full version, as a subscription or a one time purchase. WHAT IT DOES NOT DO HerdCard never supplies a withdrawal period. Labels change and they differ by country, so you type what the label in your hand says, and the app does the arithmetic and the reminding. It is a record, not veterinary advice, and it does not decide whether an animal is fit to sell. There are no ads. It does not read RFID or EID tags: type the number in.
