Weighing questions

Short answers before you start your free trial.

Do I need an EID reader?

No. Search for each animal instead. A reader just makes a big group quicker.

Does FlockFinder read my weigh scales?

No. Your reader picks out the animal and you type in the weight from your scales.

How is daily live weight gain worked out?

On each animal, it is the weight gained since the previous weigh divided by the days between them. The livestock list shows an estimate per animal that uses its weights from birth, ideally a birth weight and a weaning weight, so it needs an exact date of birth.

Can I weigh just one animal?

Yes. Add a weight from the animal's record.

Can I add weights I already have?

Yes. Upload a dated weight for each animal from a spreadsheet on a computer.
