### 1/5 — Not free

*2026-03-24, version 6.2.0*

Cant even get into the app without making a login and signing up for a trial/subscription I’ll keep us in the lite version

### 5/5 — 👏🏻 👏🏻

*2026-03-10*

This app is everything my neurodivergent brain needs, and every update gives me options I didn’t even know I wanted to track/note. I could write an essay on how many things I love about this app, but you’d be better off just giving it a shot yourself, honestly. The paid version is entirely worth it if you’re *any* level of neurotic about your birds, like I am. 
The ONLY “complaint” I can come up with is that I wish it were easier to add photos and that we could add more than three at a time, but that’s not even worth a drop in rating. 15/10 👏🏻

### 5/5 — I was a fan before they did the upgrades

*2026-02-17, version 6.1.0*

I love this app I had it when it was free and I don’t mind paying for all the new updates

### 5/5 — Amazing App!

*2026-01-08, version 5.2.0*

This app has been the best. It helps me manage and keep track of all my flocks— my backyard laying flocks and my breeding flocks!

### 5/5 — Chicken math meets organization

*2025-12-29*

We’ve been loving the Flockstar app—especially with the newest update. It just keeps getting better, and honestly, now is the time to jump in. Pricing goes up at the beginning of January, so if you’ve been on the fence, this is your sign.

We use it daily to manage our flock, breeding groups, hatches, and records, and it has completely replaced notebooks and scattered notes for us.

The only thing we’d love to see added is a way to import existing records via a CSV file when getting started—but even without that, Flockstar has become an essential part of our everyday farm routine.

### 4/5 — Love being organized

*2025-12-22, version 5.1.2*

So far this app has been great in every way. The only thing it’s missing for me is the ability to leave the “laid by” selection blank when recording an individual egg and similarly, leave the “flock” selection blank in bulk entry. Most people don’t know who laid what, but still want to keep track of how many eggs are laid total.

### 5/5 — Impressive and very useful

*2025-12-18*

This app is exactly what i’ve been looking for in order to keep track of my chickens at all stages of their lives. It’s honestly quite impressive how well designed and easy it is to use this app and it seems very well maintained. The web app and cloud sync are also life savers.

### 5/5 — great app

*2025-12-04, version 5.0.0*

Love the app. The new hatch tracker is a great addition.

### 5/5 — Hands Down the Best Tool for Backyard Chicken and Quail Keepers

*2025-12-01, version 5.1.0*

This isn’t just an egg counter. I can effortlessly track everything: individual hen production, average egg weight, fertility rates on hatching runs, full financial expenses and sales by flock l, and detailed health notes for every single bird. The depth of data is professional-grade, but the input process is totally casual.

### 5/5 — Love it but …

*2025-11-21*

Flockstar is an outstanding app for managing a flock, and I highly recommend it to anyone serious about poultry keeping. It is easily the best digital flock management tool I have used.
What I Love:
• User-Friendly Design: The interface is clean, intuitive, and makes tracking health records, egg production, and expenses remarkably simple.
• The Desktop Version: Having a fully-functional desktop version is a huge benefit. It allows for detailed data entry and analysis on a larger screen, which is essential for larger or complex flocks. This seamless sync between mobile and desktop is a major selling point!
• Comprehensive Tracking: The ability to log everything from medical treatments to feed consumption has been invaluable for optimizing the health and productivity of my birds.
Suggested Improvement:
The only feature I wish could be streamlined is the process for adding newly hatched chicks.
• Automation for Hatching: I would love it if there was an option for chicks that hatch (after logging the hatch date/count) to be automatically added as new entries in a designated "Chick" flock or directly into the main flock, rather than needing to manually create each new bird entry. This would be a massive time-saver during hatching season!
In conclusion, Flockstar is an essential tool for the modern chicken keeper. It's a fantastic app that brings organization and efficiency to the coop.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 6.9.0 — 2026-08-27

• Internal bug fixes and optimizations
• Fixed a rare issue where an active subscription could show as expired after the app had been closed for a while.

### 6.8.0 — 2026-08-06

New
• Breeding Groups - Track hatching stats down to the birds, not just the flock. Build reusable groups for the pairings that matter: an exact dam x sire match, a rooster over a pen, or a known hen. Full lineage automatically flows through to every hatchling.
• Refreshed Hatching dashboard - The Hatching screen now leads with what needs you: runs with an overdue or due-soon candling, lockdown, or hatch, which you can complete right from the card. Below that, your recent fertility and hatch rate with trend lines, plus a leaderboard of your top sources and best birds.
• Hatching Stats - A new, dedicated Stats screen. Break performance down by egg source, flock, dam, sire, run type, or incubator, with a mini trend on every row, and tap any group to see it run by run.
• Exclude experimental hatching runs so they don't skew your numbers.
• Share and export - Export your Stats, or any single dam, sire, or flock, as a PDF or CSV to hand to a buyer or keep for your records.

Changed
• Egg Production "vs. prior" totals now compare the same days so far in the prior week, month, or year, not the whole prior period.
• Sorting birds by Leg Band / Tag ID now follows number order for bands that start with digits (1, 2, 11 instead of 1, 11, 2).

Bug Fixes
• Count fields no longer open the keyboard when you tap plus or minus, and tapping a 0 clears it so you can type right over it.

### 6.7.0 — 2026-07-16

Flockstar now offers two subscription plans:
• Keeper: complete flock, egg, and record keeping
• Breeder: everything in Keeper, plus hatching, lineage, and pedigrees

Already subscribed? Nothing changes: your plan, price, and features stay exactly as they are. You can switch plans anytime from Settings.

Also in this update:
• Fix for a freeze that could occur after attaching a photo. Thanks to everyone who reported it.
• Fix for an intermittent network issue for users in certain regions.

### 6.6.0 — 2026-06-29

Pedigrees! Track a bird's ancestry, fill in its family tree, and hand a buyer a certificate.
• See the family tree: A pan-and-zoom chart across three generations, opened from a bird's profile or menu, right alongside Lineage.
• Build it out: Fill an empty parent slot with an existing bird or a brand-new ancestor, and change or clear any parent any time.
• Pedigree certificate: Generate a printable PDF for any bird and share or save it, branded with your farm name and tagline.

### 6.5.0 — 2026-06-14

New
• Import egg history, both individual and bulk, from a CSV file or spreadsheet.
• The Birds tab now makes it easier to view one flock at a time, with a flock picker in the header and a summary bar showing active, inactive, and filtered-out birds.

Changed
• Bulk Create Members now supports larger flocks - start numbering up to 9000, preview the generated names, and adjust number padding when you need 2-, 3-, or 4-digit numbering.
• Archived flocks that are still marked for breeding can now be selected as a Breeding Flock when editing a bird's lineage.
• Improved the sign-in and account creation flow to make it clearer which email to use and help prevent accidental duplicate accounts.

Bug Fixes
• The Birds list now keeps your place after you edit and save a bird, instead of jumping back to the top.
