What the app includes

The app focuses on straightforward reference and planning use. It keeps the catalog local, the reading fast, and the guidance practical instead of layering on accounts, social features, or subscriptions.

Fast lookup

Scroll the catalog of species overviews plus 200+ breeds, or search directly by breed, origin, or purpose. Filter by category, purpose, or conservation status.

Breed detail

Each breed shows origin country, purpose, mature size, productivity, conservation status, temperament, and care notes for feed, housing, water, handling, social needs, and climate.

Feed & Water Planner

New in 1.2. Build a list of animal groups and get an estimated daily dry-matter (hay) and water need per group and as a total. Monthly hay tonnage and a pasture acreage gauge based on Animal Unit Equivalents (AUE) are included. Figures come from USDA and university extension publications. Supports 11 species: cattle, dairy cattle, horses, donkeys, sheep, goats, pigs, rabbits, chickens, alpacas, and llamas.

Find your breed

A guided, offline selector ranks breeds against your space, climate, main product, experience level, and noise tolerance, and explains why each one fits.

Gestation & incubation

Pick a species and a breeding or set date to project the expected due or hatch date with the typical range, computed entirely on device.

Compare side by side

Line up two or three breeds to weigh category, purpose, size, productivity, care level, climate fit, and conservation status at a glance.

Conservation & learning

A heritage and conservation-status layer on the Livestock Conservancy and FAO scale, plus a care glossary (now 50+ terms including 15 new nutrition and feed-planning terms), a quiz, and a local favorites shortlist with private notes.

Version 1.2 — Feed & Water Planner

The new Feed & Water Planner (Tools tab) lets you build a list of your animal groups and instantly see daily dry-matter and water estimates for each one, along with a monthly hay tonnage total and a rough pasture acreage gauge. Intake figures use midpoints from USDA and university extension service publications (NDSU AS1783, Iowa Beef Center, Alabama CES ANR-0812, NRC nutrient requirement tables). Animal Unit Equivalent values follow the Wyoming Cooperative Extension B-1320 table. Everything is computed on-device with no network connection required.

The Learn > Care Glossary gained 15 new terms covering nutrition and feed-planning concepts: Dry Matter Intake (DMI), Animal Unit (AU), Animal Unit Month (AUM), Carrying Capacity, AUE, TDN, Hay Equivalent, Palatability, Flushing, Creep Feeding, Free-Choice Minerals, Ad Libitum Water, Bloat, Acidosis, and Pasture Dry Matter.
