Herd Chaser — Smarter Herd Management Herd Chaser is ranch management built by working ranchers, for working ranchers. Keep your whole cattle operation in one place — fast, simple, and made for the way you actually work. TRACK EVERY ANIMAL Keep complete records for every head — tags, breeds, weights, and history. Add photos right from your phone so you always know which cow is which. BREEDING & CALVING Record breedings, track due dates, and log calves in seconds. Calves stay linked to their mothers automatically, so your lineage is always connected. Run a whole pregnancy check chute-side with batch entry. PASTURES & GRAZING Map your fields, track which herd is where, and get reminders when it's time to move. Grazing calculations help you make the most of your grass. STAY ON TOP OF THE DAY A simple dashboard shows what needs you — herds to move, cattle to watch, and today's tasks — the moment you log in. KEEP YOUR RECORDS STRAIGHT Track equipment and maintenance, log rainfall, and manage ranch income and expenses with accountant-ready exports come tax time. WORK TOGETHER Bring your spouse, hired hand, or manager onto the same ranch with shared access, so everyone's looking at the same information. Whether you run a handful of head or a whole operation, Herd Chaser keeps your records straight and your day organized — even when you're out in the field. Questions or ideas? We're ranchers too. Reach us anytime at support@herdchaser.com.
