Awesome App

I’d been using this Egg Tracker/chicken app for a while I’d been very happy and impressed that I can look back and check my chicken type records and their lifespan on laying. Very helpful to track my cost and egg returns.

Super Handy!!!

So I got this app just to merely know how many eggs my hens are laying. I wanted something simple compared to the other Poultry apps. This one by far is my favorite hands down! But as I have moved around within the app I found that u can do so much more like track how much feed they are getting. U can even write down each one of ur chickens as well as add a photo of them to it. All kinds of things are available!

Could be better but not bad for the price

It will cost you $4.99 to get the accounting part of the app. It works for what I need it for. I have only had it a day and there are only a few things I see that could improve the app.
1) count up the chickens for me. After putting in all my birds it would be nice to be able to see how many I have at a glance and not have to count what I have added.
2) in the accounting it would be nice to see a breakdown of how much it cost to care for each bird. It shows the break down of cost and feed per dozen but it would be nice to see the same for each bird without having to do the math.
3) maybe a way to break down expenses farther like how much is spent on feed, supplements, cartons/supplies to sell the eggs, ect.
4) have a way to break down income. For example being able to track how many eggs each of my customers purchase from me each time.
As I said in the beginning it’s not a bad app for the price and if you don’t need a lot of detailed information it really is good and is easy to use.

Second time trying

I had FlockPlenty once before, and I had over two dozen chickens on my app. Due to a glitch and an error in the app, I lost all of my information, including a couple of years of history with my birds. I became quite frustrated and deleted the app because what’s the point if it’s not gonna keep track. This is my second time trying, with all new birds, and I am hoping that, nothing happens to the data that I collect. I will give you a higher rating, so long as it doesn’t happen again.
I’m not sure what’s up with the app this time around but it won’t open. I have downloaded it and deleted and downloaded again and deleted it again and downloaded and it still won’t open for me so I’m guessing that the glitches are still in there. I give up.

Great app but….

Used this for three and one half years with great success. Now after the latest iPhone update (17.2.1) it no longer works.

Best free app I've tried

I love this app! I only have two small suggestions that could make it better, an option to have it remind you to back up your information (I lost quite a bit with a phone crash) and the ability to track multiple pens at once.

Need to add more breeds

I’d rate this app 5 stars if there were more breeds updated regularly and if you could do other birds like turkeys and ducks etc. I use the “other” category for my non chicken breeds but I’d love it if this app had them already.

Quit Working

Worked great for months then it won’t open.

Not for me but thats just me….

It looked promising but I am not paying $5 to access the accounting tab. If your willing to do that then this app could be what your looking for because it looked really simple and nice. Looked very organized and I would have loved to give it a shot. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Updated my phone and nothing

App worked great, updated my phone and now it won’t run at all. Shame cause this was a great app.

Great start but could be better

Most of the app works great but most of the reports are glitchy and close the app when selected. The following would be helpful as well.

Individual bird health tracker
Inventory tracker
Customer information section
Add select custom option in sales

So far, so good

I’m experimenting with a couple of different apps, and I like this so far. This is more of a suggestion list than a review. I only have 20-30 chickens at any one time, and I generally give away eggs when we’re overwhelmed. Here, it’s more about the chickens than anything else. I would like a health tracker with a date feature, so that I could log that a hen is limping or sneezing or whatever, along with whatever steps I took to treat it. (Could pretty much default to Vetrx.) There should be an RIP date and Cause that is set up like your breed selector. Predator (dog, hawk, etc), Illness, Age. Although I am REALLY angry when a hawk gets one of my girls, it seems important to remind people that our biggest loss came from the neighbor’s dogs.
It would be awesome to be able to have a ‘Copy Chicken’ option, so that when I get a bunch of chicks I can set up one and then copy it and change the name, photo or breed instead of setting up each one from scratch. It would also be great to have a field to add where I got them - local or whatever mail order place I used. Just some ideas to someone who has already created a nice, friendly app.

Needs upgrading

I love this app! But it won’t work with my current IOS. I get a message that the developer needs to update it to work with current IOS version. I’ve sent them a message, but no response. So far I can’t find another egg/chicken keeping app as good as this one.

A Must Have

I do not have that many chickens only 39. This app helps me keep track of how many eggs I get and I can put neat facts about a certain chicken under the flock feature I really love this app. I would love to be able to have a feature where we can have more than one flock.

New features?

Love using the app. A couple of things would make the app more functional for me. I’ll leave them here in case the developer decides they are feasible upgrades.

1. A date range option for the summary page. Right now it’s a summary for total data stored in the app. I want to see summary for say, one month at a time.

2. A customer data section would be awesome. I would like to store customer names, addresses, phone number, email, and trend data for what customers are buying and when. This helps me with logistics and forecasting. Being able to select the customer you are selling to in the sales tab and how many dozen eggs they are buying would help.

3. Inventory feature. I would love to keep track of inventory. The app collects number of eggs collected. I’d like to see inventory by dozen and for the app to auto calculate inventory increase and decrease with collecting and selling eggs.

4. Would like to see number of eggs sold option. Would be nice to choose by 1/2, dozen, 18 pack, 24 pack.

5. A decimal point for cents in the expenses section would help keep detail oriented records.

It won’t open not with the latest update to the iOS. 😭

I have used this app for years and now it won’t open

Was a great app

Was wonderful to keep track of eggs and chickens! Up until a few weeks ago- cannot even open it up anymore 🤷‍♀️ getting really upset on all these apps that you pay the extra into and then they just stop working🤦‍♀️

Worked well for 4 years, then crashed.

Great app and we’ve been tracking our egg production for years. But the app suddenly stopped working and won’t open. If I de-install it and re-install (only option left) I lose four years of egg numbers.

Developer’s website is dead, so can’t reach out. Going to just sit it out and hope the guy writes a fix for whatever bug is crashing it.

I can be reached here if crash data is needed: 505.795.0608.

App suddenly shut down

After the iOS 14.2 Apple update I can no longer open this app. It immediately shuts down. I cannot contact the developer as there is an error code when I click the link. And I’ve never been able to export to social media even though that is supposed to be an option.

This has been my go too app to track my birds progress for 3 years. I’ll be very sad if I’m unable to retrieve my birds data!

One thing missing you

So I just downloaded this app and it seems ok, but I have one issue with it. As I was filling in the information for my hens I noticed that there is no option to fill in how many eggs each of my chickens had laid. Now some people might like that the egg tracking is general and not per bird, but I would personally like to be able to track each of my hens and compact them. This doesn’t have to be a tool everyone has to use, but I would appreciate it if the option of tracking how many eggs each chicken lays. But other that that this app seems pretty thorough.
