Anyone else keep track of hens and eggs?

I started keeping track on my ipod touch with an egg tracking app (http://www.filecluster.com/iPhone/Egg-Tracker-37888.html) which lets you import photos of your hens and then track their eggs by date, size, etc.

We recently added two hens (to our existing flock of five) and that's confused things a bit.

I use a tracking spreadsheet furnished by BYC'er named raizin

I hope this is the correct link.

Have y'all looked at www.Eggzy.net? You can enter your eggs daily and get graphs and statistics. It actually dates the eggs. Or I should say lists a date for the egg(s) by breed. I called one of my BPRs a 'mixed' so that I now can see on the charts who is productive and who isn't... (but luckily, they are all doing well).

Lucky me, I can tell each of my 4-layers eggs. I also weigh each egg daily and jot on calendar. It's eggcellent to have the information.

It'll work just fine in Excel 2010.

I just started a spreadsheet this morning because I was losing track. DH has been bringing eggs to school to sell, some of my clients are buying eggs, we sell to the neighbours. I was just keeping track on the calendar in the kitchen, but when there are more chicken and egg notations than anything else it is time for a new system.

So, now I have a spreadsheet, which I will have to get DH to tweak for me as I am not very proficient at making them. But, it has dates, feed purchased, number of eggs collected, dozens sold and money in. I cannot track who laid what as they all lay brown and there are too many of them.

I am most curious about egg totals and when we will (perhaps, LOL) break even.
