One feature I would love to have added is "Incubator" and have a way to track incubation. For that area, I would love to see this added:

1. Incubator number (for multiple incubators)
2. Day eggs are placed
3. Day to pull out or turn off the egg turner
4. Hatch day anticipated
5. Temperature tracking for those without auto-temp regulating
6. Moisture tracking for those without auto-moisture control
7. Number of eggs put in incubator
8. Number of eggs hatched
9. Breed of eggs

Not a bad app. It's easy to use and I like the overall idea of tracking each hen. Love the egg counter but wish I could assign each egg to a specific hen. Breed list could use expanding and I'd like to see the age of the chicken displayed rather than hatch date.

Things i liked, cataloging each individual chicken, hatch dates, loading bar on progress in uploading a picture to the gallery.
things i don't like :
very limited breed selection, needs actual age in months and or years, adding more than one picture for each chicken like a timeline to See each chickens growth, text editing needs the symbol to mark your spot so you know where you're typing, needs a way to search or classify the community gallery into pages or breeds .

if things improve, I'll keep using it, if they stay the same, i probably will uninstall.

Done! Now to try it out!

The app is cool. I love how you can add each chicken special and they have their own page. One this is that they don't have hardly any of the breeds. My chickens have to be under other. Other than that it is a great way to keep up with your chickens.

I agree with the comments others have made - the breed list is very limited, if there was a most comprehensive list or a way to enter breeds (for mixes) that would be great. I have some chicks that are a mix of 3-4 breeds and I'd love an easier way to remember which are which!

I also like the idea of showing age vs. just DOB. And an incubation calendar would be great - if you could enter when you set eggs, the date of lockdown and hatch - a reminder for lockdown would be great.

I just downloaded the app and it new of it's kind for me... I liked it but the website where it's supposed to download the app took me to an impolite site... so this thing should be regulated. ... I downloaded it from the app store as all did... and there are lots of missing breeds... and even the breed that are mentioned many of them don't have pics.... and information about the breeds must be added..... also many issues about the tables' organization and other things besides the downloads are slow...... but it's agood start and hopefully it will be better soon and very exciting and useful app...

Every time I try I get "this page can't be displayed. Why is that always happening to me. I've tried on different days and times. Any other hints? I would like to try it!

Well the app couldn't download from here. I can't access parts like store locator or shopping list the blog doesn't work right. This app needs a lot of work. Like others say words get cut off to. Needs more breeds and info about them. Should have a bantam section also.

I downloaded the app and have been using if for over a week now. I really like it and enjoy the articles. The links are very helpful and I am hoping the “manage my flock” may replace my current spreadsheet. Overall, very happy with the app and eggcited to learn about it here on BYC.
thanks,
