chick chart?

[silvergatefarms]

Hey has anyone else on here bought that new chick chart computer program to keep up with your flock? I was just curious what everyones opinion is on it. I keep up with egg production, where everyone is housed, leg banding all on microsoft excel spreadsheets.

I have it, like it, don't know how to use spreadsheets. So far I am just using the "fowl records" part. Not getting any eggs.

Never heard of it?

I've got it, I'm just not taking the time to use it.

I need to.

What is this thing you call chick chart??

Where would I find it? I would love to see it. My hubby makes all sorts of things for me on spreadsheets so this would sure come in handy

It is a computer program that is supposed to keep up with your records of breeding, showing, egg production......

Here it is on the for sale BYC forum.

I went to the web site to order it. I thought I would give it a try. I'm hoping it will combine all my spreadsheets into on little bundle thing.

Ok guys, I just recieved my chickchart program. I have to say I am very disappointed in it. It is way faster and easier to just use a spreadsheet for expenses as well as egg production, incubation and hatching and brooding, I also keep up with which pens have who in them and IDs. This program is hard to add information from past dates, as well as change any mistakes in entering the info. It does not keep up with as many details as I can on one spreadsheet. I do not recomend this program if you have the ability to use spreadsheets. Or even are able to keep up with it on paper.

I bought it back in January and it will not load on my pc...I don't know why. Andrew tried to fix through a internet connection to my pc..He had no luck either. Said he would send another disc, but haven't seen it either.
