## What is Gestation Table Calculator?

For the farmer/stock breeder this app displays the estimated due date for the birth of the young of various animals based on a normal gestation period.
When an animal species is selected the screen immediately shows the gestation period and the due date based on the current date.
A Birth Record can be created based on the data from the Calculator and updated later to record actual number of offspring.  These records are available easily from the main screen.  In addition, a Calendar Event is created on the user device (with user permission).
Note that gestation periods are estimates and will vary somewhat for individual animals.

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2022-03-24, version 3.23*

I would be totally lost without this ap. I raise goats and I especially love that it ads the due dates to my calendar for me. I can adjust the due dates for the smaller breed that I have which is very helpful. I do think it is odd to have armadillos on the ap since they don’t breed in captivity but it doesn’t affect my use.

### 4/5 — Add one more feature

*2021-07-13, version 3.23*

Tried a few apps to track farmstead animals even paying for some but they're cumbersome to learn to use.  Happy with the simplicity of this app. But please add option to track sires?

**Developer response:** Thanks for the review.  It has been a while since I updated the app and I think I am going to have to rewrite it to using the new Apple developer tools.  I will add your feature request to the spec.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2019-01-11, version 3.22*

This app is exactly what I was looking. It’s simple, straightforward, accurate and it doesn’t try to razzle dazzle with a lot of useless bells and whistles.

### 3/5 — App addition

*2017-10-24, version 3.21*

Love the app. 1 thing I think would be extremely useful is a place to record the bull, billy etc. most farms have more than one Sire. It would be so useful for my husband

### 5/5 — gestation is off- BUT....

*2017-08-08, version 3.20*

zebra is not 158 days it is 10-12 months- not sure if others r correct- but received an immediate response when i contacted support- also very willing to add - support is awesome up-ed my 3 stars to 5

### 4/5 — Nice App

*2017-04-11, version 3.1*

Nice app, but it could use another bell or whistle. We tried Birth Planner prior to this App, but it didn't have enough animal listings for our farm. What we liked about that app though, was that it tied to reminders so you could get a pop up on the day they were due.  We would pay to see that with this app as well.

### 1/5 — No rabbit

*2017-02-14, version 3.1*

Download not realizing rabbits weren't on the list

### 1/5 — Not very accurate

*2016-02-15, version 2.0*

When I put in 9/18/2015 as the exposure date for goats it says 1/15/2016. That's only 120 days not 150.

### 5/5 — Great Simple & Easy to use

*2015-10-31*

What a great simple App. Very easy to use, answer directly calculated- no fancy graphics to slow you down. 
Five Stars.
