Animal profile
Everything known about one animal, from its ear tag to its five-generation pedigree.
What it is for
The profile gathers an animal's identity, performance, genetics, reproduction, health and history in one place, with actions at the top: Edit animal, Certificate, Find matings (females), Mark for culling, Add weight, Pedigree, Related animals, Health event and Print / export.
- 1Profile tabs: overview, pedigree, related animals, weights, performance, health, genomics, history
- 2Identification: tag, sex, breed, lot, purity
- 3Birth & rearing: date, parents, conception type, birth type
- 4Performance: birth, 50-day, 100-day and adult weight (actual and adjusted)
- 5Edit animal
- 6Certificate (PDF)
- 7Mark for culling (moves to the culling system group)
- 8Weaning weight, age at weaning and ADG to weaning
- 9Pedigree & genetics block
Overview
Identification: ear tag, name, sex, breed with purity grade and breed level, lot and whether it was purchased. Birth & rearing: date of birth, current age, birth weight, birth order, born alive/dead in the litter, genetic sire and dam, conception type and birth type; rearing type (dam, foster, bottle) is asked separately because without it no rearing adjustment is applied rather than inventing one. Performance: birth, 50-day, 100-day and adult weight, each with its adjusted value, plus weaning weight, weaning date, age at weaning, ADG to weaning, latest weight and ADG birth→latest.
A data-quality banner appears when something is missing or conflicting, for example "Birth type missing · This appears to be a single birth", with buttons to accept or decline the suggested change. Missing data (birth weight, adult weight) is listed so you can complete it.
Pedigree & genetics
Standardized rating 0–100 against peers of the same sex and breed, what it rests on (own performance, progeny, pedigree) and its accuracy; maternal and growth components with coverage ("covers 99% of the index"); inbreeding (F); sire and dam known; and Growth, Flock and Prolific Flock with percentiles. The Pedigree tab draws five generations with inbreeding, completeness per generation (G2–G5), lines, repeated ancestors highlighted and "Unknown +" slots to add an ancestor.
- 1Inbreeding (F) and whether the pedigree is deep enough
- 2Pedigree completeness by generation (G2–G5)
- 3Repeated ancestors
- 4The animal
- 5Sire and dam
- 6Grandparents (yellow = repeated ancestor)
- 7Unknown: add an ancestor here

Related animals
Progeny, full siblings, half siblings and litter mates, plus ascendants (sire, dam, grandparents) as cards or a table, filtered by sex and status.
Weights and Performance
Weights lists every weighing with type, actual value, ADG since previous, adjusted value, age, date, lot, method and state (standard stage or operational), and an expected adult weight as a phenotypic projection with a confidence band and the warning that it is not a genetic value. Performance shows the market objective for this animal and the growth curve: this animal, birth weight, comparable group average, P10–P90 range and configured target, followed by the weight table with the difference against the group average.
- 1Market objective that reaches this animal
- 2ADG since last weight and days covered
- 3Forecast date to reach the target
- 4Growth curve: age (days) vs weight (kg)
- 5P10–P90 band of the comparable group
- 6Configured target line
- 7Weight goals for this animal only
- 8Weight table: ADG since previous, adjusted, group average
Reproduction
Status chips, who she is nursing, lambings, born alive and dead, prolificacy, lambing interval, age at first lambing (a bound when her history started elsewhere), lambs weaned, lambs and kilos weaned per exposure and per ewe-year, and the forms to record joining, pregnancy diagnosis, lambing and abortion. In the demo, Estrella shows 3 lambings, 5 born alive, 1 born dead, prolificacy 1.67 and 4 lambs weaned.
- 1Current status chips: empty, lactating, last diagnosis, bred to
- 2Nursing which lamb since when
- 3Lambings, born alive/dead, prolificacy, lambing interval
- 4Age at first lambing (upper bound if history started elsewhere) and lambs weaned
- 5Record joining (natural, AI or ET)
- 6Method and sire
Health, Genomics and History
Health lists treatments, FAMACHA scores with follow-up notes, recorded defects, the fitness state (health, maternal, fertility, structure, growth) and the disposal codes (sold for breeding, sold for slaughter, culled for age, predator loss, died…). Genomics stores single-gene test results, DNA samples and genotyping QC. History is the timeline: lambings, FAMACHA, diagnoses, services, lot entries and exits, back to birth.
Certificate, review and cull
Certificate prints the animal's card. Mark for culling places the animal in the system's culling group without deleting anything; the decision stays with the producer.
