Backyard Chicken Keeper vs EggBasket

Coop is the backyard chicken keeper's complete companion - track daily egg production, manage flock health, and discover which hen is your best layer. Log eggs in seconds each morning, monitor health events with a built-in conditions reference, and track incubation day by day. The breed database covers 60+ popular breeds with laying rates, temperament, and climate hardiness. Expense tracking reveals the true cost of your eggs (brace yourself). Whether you have 4 hens or 40, Coop turns your flock into a well-managed, data-backed operation. EGG TRACKING Log your daily egg count in under 10 seconds - the fastest morning ritual in the coop. Tap the +/- counter, done. Track individual hens in detailed mode, log egg colors from your mixed-breed flock, and view a calendar heatmap of your production history. Monthly totals, weekly averages, and laying rate trends reveal patterns you never noticed before. FLOCK MANAGEMENT Every bird in your flock, individually profiled. Add photos, track breeds from a library of 60+ varieties, log personality notes, and monitor each hen's status - laying, molting, broody, or sick. Bird profiles feel like character pages, because your hens have characters. HEALTH TRACKING Log health events with severity levels, symptom checklists, treatment notes, and follow-up reminders. The built-in conditions reference covers respiratory illness, digestive problems, egg issues, parasites, and injuries - searchable by symptom. When something's wrong with a bird, answers are one tap away. INCUBATION TRACKER Set eggs on day 0 and let Coop guide you through candling days, lockdown, and hatch day. Milestone notifications fire automatically - you will never miss the day 18 lockdown. Track fertility rates and hatch results.
