How do you track your eggs? App, spreadsheet, other?

[ThatTeowonna]

Hello. I'm just wondering how you track your eggs and chicken productivity. Do you use an app? If so, which one? What is your assessment of it? Do you use a spreadsheet, pen/paper, calendar, or something else? How do you track which chick lays which eggs?

I downloaded a spreadsheet on FreshEggsDaily.com last year and just started a new one for 2021. It tracks by chicken or by color and by day/month so you know not only how many eggs you got each day, month and year but also how many each chicken laid each month and year. If you prefer to track by color instead of bird (like if you have a bunch of the same breed) you can do that too.

I do hatchabatch. It has notes every day of what's developing

I have a garden journal that doubles as an egg journal too. If I ever get into different colored eggs, I might do a spreadsheet. I'm too old and tech unsavy for apps.

I've never had an egg roll away far enough it required tracking.

I just post daily on the “how many Eggs you get today” thread. Actually helps me keep track for sales and what’s likely to be sitting in the nest boxes each day.

I use a plain notebook.

Spreadsheet file, with many sheets for eggs, sales, costs, hatching, notes, etc.....
It's old school, installed on my laptop...have modified/amended it many times.

I just checked out hatchabatch. It tracks incubation eggs. How do you track your laid eggs?

The apps I use are Flockstar and Mother Hen. I like Flockstar best, but it doesn't track expenses.
