I JUST found this and am excited to give it a try! Thank you for all the hard work you put into it @mill-j & all the suggestions by others!

Thanks everybody.
Ok I'm not sure if this makes sense, but here is what I've been playing with.View attachment 1885269
Would something like this work? It'd probably be wise to add egg weight loss % for every day as well as total % of egg weight loss.
Hopefully this will give us something to work with.
Thanks

This would be fantastic!@ChickenCanoe could you get me a sample report of information(dates, percentages, color etc) you'd like to see when you're done with a hatch.
I've never used excel so I'm not sure how this would work but I might be able to add it to where you can export a .csv file with data that would potentially be useful later on in your spreadsheet.
Thanks
In the desktop version you can. I did not add that on the mobile version yet. In the mobile version the latest batch shows up at the top.Can I sort the batches in my list by start date?
Perfect, thanks.In the desktop version you can. I did not add that on the mobile version yet. In the mobile version the latest batch shows up at the top.

Thanks. I'm planning on having a comments section for every egg. Perhaps I can add a comment for every day(for every egg) along with the weight.Hello! I love your app! As I mentioned on the other thread, a time-stamped journal feature would be great, even for each individual egg.
I plan on making the Color and Shape dropdowns customizable (Minus the pictures)Here are some more ideas based on what I like to record. I know some of these are pretty out there, but hey, they're just free ideas. I skimmed the thread, so sorry if I'm accidentally repeating someone else's thoughts.
- Colour of egg. You could even connect to the phone camera and have it detect the colour of the egg and put in the colour code. Upload a picture maybe?
- Egg shape??? You could get real scientific testing that "pullet versus bullet" theory, especially if you had the phone camera take a picture of the egg and figure out what shape it is mathemathically. Heck, with the right algorithm, you could make an app that predicts the sex of the chick by taking a picture of the egg (assuming there's any truth to it). Like, maybe not very accurately, but people would download the app, lol
Daily comments should be able to cover this as well.- Time-stamped input for when various developmental stages happened. I try to make a point not to use stragglers as breeding stock, for instance. It'd be neat to graph development, like when the blood island formed, when heartbeat was seen, etc. Could upload pictures of what it looked like then, too.
This would perhaps be useful, however I'd rather work with (or develop) a sensor that logs that data directly to the app. Not likely to ever happen though...- Temperature, humidity recordings graphed over time (preferably with the instrument itself indicated as well, as I have multiple thermometers)
Daily comments should be able to cover this as well.- daily duties, such as turning, misting, etc could have inputs
Minus the temps, the egg comments should make it easier to store this info.- Egg history: when was it laid, how was it stored, was it turned, was it shipped, how often has this hen been laying? (if you're breeding for really dark eggs and recording egg colour, frequency of lay can matter) etc.
- Egg condition/quality: damaged air cells, cracks, double yolker, etc
- Egg events: temperature spikes, power outage, cracks, whatever, that apply to individual eggs or batches. For instance, I have a thermometer gun that I'll shoot at each egg to check for hot spots.
This would be useful. And you could probably get by with adding a broody as an incubator- Which incubator I'm using (most of us own multiple, and I'm sure some are better than others).
- or if I'm using a broody
This could be useful as well.- Custom tags (damaged, shipped, blue, aged, pullet, whatever tag you want) so you can compare
- If it gets really complex, the app could inform the user of any correlation with hatch rates, even if the user isn't looking (like maybe it's better to start your incubation on the new moon as opposed to the old moon, ya never know, or maybe a certain hen has low hatch rates -- that one is more likely)
- lunar phases? haha
- I'd like something that connects to a pedigree/genetics app, but that's whole thing
