ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Chicken & Egg Tracker holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Chicken & Egg Tracker has 20 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Chicken & Egg Tracker's written reviews are positive against 100% of ChickenFlock's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Chicken & Egg Tracker ships an update every 3 months, ChickenFlock every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively.
