EggHatching vs Hühnerfuchs

The Egg Hatching App helps you easily and clearly track the incubation process of eggs. Plan the start of incubation, receive daily reminders to turn the eggs, document candling, and keep track of important dates until hatching. Ideal for hobby breeders and anyone who wants to successfully hatch chicks.

Hühnerfuchs is a lovingly crafted iPhone app for backyard poultry keepers. Three hens in the garden, a few runner ducks by the pond or a small breeding group – Hühnerfuchs turns your daily life with the birds into a clear, beautiful overview. NEW: NOT JUST CHICKENS Chickens, ducks, geese, quail, turkeys and guinea fowl – each species with its own breed catalogue and its own egg weight range. With a mixed flock, every summary names the species alongside. WHAT YOU DO WITH HÜHNERFUCHS - Record eggs – per animal or as a collective entry by egg colour (ideal for free range) - Document unusual eggs: broken, wind eggs, double yolks, soft-shelled as well as very small and very large ones - Create your own egg colours – with freely chosen display colours - Record and analyse egg weight – average, minimum and maximum per species - Keep full records per animal: ringing with colour, number and position, plus source, purchase date and purchase price - Log departures: reason, sale price and sale date – the animal moves to the archive, the data stays - Track health: illnesses, vaccinations, medication, parasites, routine check-ups - Record group treatments for an entire flock at once - Plan appointments with reminders and repeats – completing one creates the matching health entry automatically - Log the weather automatically if you like – with a temperature trend per flock and calculated daylight hours - Photo journal for special moments – several photos per entry, with tags and a tag filter FEED, LIVESTOCK, EGG SALES Expenses and income end up where they belong: an animal's purchase price can be booked straight as an expense, and a sale is recorded through the income form, which archives the animal along with it. Plus cost per egg, a monthly breakdown by category and profit or loss at a glance. DASHBOARD AT A GLANCE Eggs today and this week, total stock, the health status of every animal, upcoming appointments with a countdown, the top layers of the month and the egg history over selectable periods. ORGANISE YOUR FLOCKS Several coops, runs or breeding groups? Each flock can have its own location – for accurate weather right where the birds are. An assistant helps you add another flock and moves existing animals across. Every statistic can be shown per flock or across all of them.
