Everything people ask about using this

It answers questions about broiler chickens and then shows the working. Ask something on the canvas and you get a written answer plus the instruments behind it: a cycle planner with cost per bird, a week-by-week growth table, a symptom triage tree and a house view that sizes ventilation, drinkers and feeders.

It serves both sides of the bird. Production questions — placement numbers, feed budgets, heat stress, mortality, stocking density, contract settlement. And consumption questions — cuts, yields from a live or dressed bird, safe handling, cooking temperatures.

No. The canvas and every instrument work signed out. An account is only needed to keep things: saved farms, tracked batches, question history, reported prices and benchmark comparisons.

The rail on the left of the canvas holds your region, house type, breed and flock size. Change any of them and the next answer is recalculated around the new context; the panels update immediately. Signed in, you can save that set as a farm and switch between farms.

Yes. Tap Save under any answer and it goes into your library, opened from the Library button at the top of the Ask screen or on its own page. Each saved answer keeps the question, the date and the farm setup it was worked out for.

The library is kept in this browser on this device. Signed-in accounts also keep a full answer history across devices.

Three places, and the answer tells you which. Breed performance comes from published broiler growth tables for the strain you selected. Prices for feed, day-old chicks and live or dressed weight start as regional planning defaults. Practice guidance comes from a curated reference library the answers cite rather than paraphrase silently.

Nothing is invented. If a region publishes no figure for something — a legal stocking density, for instance — the app says so instead of filling the gap.

Under each answer, a short panel lists exactly what it was worked out from — your region, house, breed and flock figures, any reported prices, and the reference-library entries it drew on — with a signal for how directly those cover your question.

"Where to focus" gives one to three practical steps: usually a figure worth entering for a sharper answer, or a measurement on the farm that tells you whether you are on track. Below it, "Explore from here" suggests next questions built on that specific result.

Yes, and you should. Every price is an editable assumption, not a fact about your market. Overwrite the feed, chick and sale prices with your own and the cost per bird, break-even and margin follow. On a paid plan those overrides are remembered per farm.

Signed-in users can report what they actually paid for feed or chicks, or were paid for birds. A region only shows a figure once at least three reports from at least two different people sit inside the last sixty days, and only the middle value and a range are ever published. Your individual report is never shown to anyone else, and you can delete it at any time.

Benchmarks are pooled from real tracked cycles, and a group — region, house type, breed — only appears once at least five cycles sit in it. Below that, a single farm could be identified from the figure, so nothing is shown. As tracking grows, groups start appearing on their own.

Open a cycle when the chicks arrive, then log weekly weight, deaths and feed used. Each entry is compared against the breed target for that week and against what your house can carry, so drift shows up while you can still act on it. Survival and feed conversion are recalculated as you go, and closing the cycle files it.

Free keeps one open batch, Grower five, Operation as many as you like.

Switch the business model to contract and the arithmetic changes shape: chicks and feed are treated as integrator-supplied, and the result is built from your grower fee, your own costs and the settlement terms. The fee assumptions are editable, so you can model the deal you were actually offered.

Not the instruments. Free gives five questions a day, one saved farm, one open batch and your last ten answers. The planner, growth table, triage tree and house view stay fully open, always.

Paid plans lift the question cap, add more farms and batches, remember custom prices, unlock benchmark comparisons against your own cycles, keep unlimited searchable history and produce a printable report.

You cannot yet. Card payment is not connected, so no plan can be bought and no card details are collected anywhere on the site. The pricing page records interest only. Anything described as paid is simply not available until billing is switched on.

Treat it as a structured first look — what the pattern of signs tends to point at, what to check next, what to separate or clean. It is not a diagnosis and it cannot prescribe. Anything involving medicines, withdrawal periods or a notifiable disease goes to a veterinarian and, where the law requires it, to your animal health authority. The rules page names who that is for your region.

It is a planning aid that names its source. Each requirement says which instrument or authority stands behind it and who to confirm it with, because poultry rules are national and they change. Where a region sets no numeric limit, the page says so — in those places the binding number is usually in your contract, not in law.

No. There are no paid listings, no ranking for money and no commission on anything you buy. The supplier module describes types of channel and gives you a quotation request to send; the quotes and the choice are yours.

Check the context rail first — region, house type, breed and flock size drive everything, and a wrong house type will throw ventilation and density far off. Then check the prices, since defaults are rarely right for a specific market. If the answer still looks wrong after that, treat the underlying figures as the authority: the growth table, the density check and your own costs, all of which are on screen and editable.

Sign in with email and password or with Google. New email accounts get a confirmation link; if it has not arrived, check the spam folder and confirm the address had no typo before trying again. A forgotten password is reset from the sign-in screen.

Piece by piece from inside the app: reported prices, batches and saved answers each have a delete control, and deleting removes the row rather than hiding it. For the whole account, say so from the address you signed up with and it is removed along with everything attached to it. What we hold, and for how long, is set out plainly on the data page.

Deliberately. Almost everything people write in about is either an assumption that needs editing or a limit documented here, so this page is the first support channel. For something genuinely unresolved — an account you cannot get into, a deletion request, a figure you believe is materially wrong, or a legal notice — use the private written contact form linked at the end of this page.
