I have been using this app for about 4 1/2 months now. I recently experienced a crashed and thought I had lost all of my information. I reached out to customer service, not expecting to hear back really. Within TEN minutes, I had a response from Brian. Long story short, he was able to trouble shoot the issue and even went above and beyond to help me with an issue that I had inadvertently created when moving from the Lite version to the Premium version. I was hesitant to spend $20 on an app, but I can say that excellent customer service makes ALL the difference! I cannot thank Brian enough for his help! If you are a flock keeper, this app is wonderful! It has helped me log and keep track of egg production, egg sales, and costs for feed/medicine, etc. Thanks again, Brian, for a great tool and superior customer service!

I love this app, I wish I’d know about it when I first got chickens. Between getting almost an entirely new flock and rebuilding and expanding my run I was curious what my new cost per egg was going to look like and what the new chickens laying patterns would be. I’m able to see that very easily now. The leaderboard is hysterical. My family is placing bets on who each months leader will be. It’s very simple and intuitive to use. I like that I can backdate expenses and egg, tracking, etc. There are two things I wish this app could do. 1) I wish I could track a double yolk, egg the same way you can track a broken egg. 2) I wish I could track medication dispensing, like putting corrid in their water tank or something like that. I still gave a five star review because this does everything and more that I set out to track initially when I went onto the App Store library to search for an app.

This app is great for the backyard Chicken keeper (like me!) or someone even in the egg business. Features include keeping track of individual birds (handy for sick ones or if they’ve stopped laying), expenses, eggs collected, eggs damaged etc. you can see summaries of daily, weekly and monthly, even yearly trends. I used to keep track on paper but this way is so MUCH EASIER on my phone. I was spending time checking the info on paper every month and sometimes life just gets too busy. This app = Convenient! I can add pics of stuff I want to document and even cute pics of my hens. The new version has expanded areas for your flock info and is intuitive for entering it in. If I’m shopping I just add my feed prices in the expenses area right then and there in the store. No more losing receipts. I recommend this app! Developer is very responsive to any questions.
