HiveLedger keeps every colony in one place: a glove-friendly inspection checklist, queen status and age, treatments and feeding, swarm and split notes, and honey harvests that add up to a season you can actually read. Open a hive and the card tells you what you need at the box: the queen's marking colour and age from her birth year, her laying status, frames of bees and brood, temperament, and the last time you checked. Tap Inspect and a big-button checklist saves the whole visit in one tap: queen seen, eggs seen, queen cells, brood pattern, stores, space, and a mite wash counted as mites per 100 bees. HiveLedger does the math beekeepers care about. Mite washes become a per-hive trend with an action band, so you know when a colony crosses into treat territory. Splits link back to the mother hive so lineage reads parent to daughter. Harvests roll up into season totals and a per-hive ranking, and the whole yard lands on one chronological season timeline. The yard health board reads every active colony at once and surfaces what needs hands today: mites over the threshold, queen trouble, overdue inspections, and open treatment withdrawal windows, sorted by urgency.
