Add Breeding History

Add Breeding History

25 September 2021 | Breeding Management

When a mare arrives on your property, you often need to enter the mare's breeding history. This is particularly important if the mare is in foal, as you will require a booking for the mare (last season) in order for a Foaling Task to be created on the Foal Due Date.

Rather than adding booking(s) for the previous season(s) and going through all the breeding tasks in sequence to correctly reflect the mare's breeding history, you can now Add Breeding History in one quick step.

On the mare profile > breeding screen, locate the Add Breeding History button in the top right hand corner of the screen.



In the Add Breeding History pop-up window, you can proceed to enter the mare's breeding history. Specifically, enter:
  1. Cover Season
  2. Stallion Type (Standing Stallion or Outside Stallion)
  3. Stallion
  4. Service Date (or Due Date if you only know the Due Date of an in-foal mare)
  5. Latest Status: 'Mare Served' / 'Missed' / 'Slipped' / 'Scan1 +ve' / 'Scan2 +ve' / 'Scan 3 +ve' / 'Mare Foaled'
  6. Foal Date and Comments (only enabled if mare's latest status is 'Mare Foaled')




A Booking is added for the season and Stallion entered, and various breeding tasks may be created depending on the mare's status.
