Per-cow control

Lactations derived from calvings you already recorded. Days in milk run on their own; you only record liters when you weigh and the dry-off when you dry.

Quick guide: how to score body condition?

Scale of 1 to 5, by eye and touch, with half points: 1 emaciated (no reserves) · 2 thin (ribs visible) · 3 moderate (ribs felt but not seen) · 4 fat (ribs hard to feel) · 5 obese (excess fat).

Cow-calf: the goal is to calve at 3.0 to 3.5 and reach breeding at 2.5 to 3.0. A cow calving under 2.5 takes longer to cycle back and gets in calf less; losing more than half a point between calving and breeding is a red flag.

Dairy: dry off at 3.25 to 3.75, calve at 3.0 to 3.5 (fat at calving raises ketosis risk) and accept 2.5 to 3.0 at peak lactation. Losing more than 1 point after calving hurts production and health.

Golden rule: condition is fixed 2 or 3 months BEFORE the key event (calving or breeding); afterwards it is too late.

Lactations open on their own with each calving.

Days in milk run on their own and the app flags who is due to dry off. You just say "Bessie gave 3 gallons" and that cow's record is done.
