Get started with Breedr Pro

Follow these simple steps to get your farm set up for cattle, sheep, or both on Breedr.

Step 1 : Download the mobile app & log into your web app

Breedr Livestock mobile app is available for Android or iOS mobile phones and tablets. Login with the same details to both your mobile and web app. Activities recorded on either the mobile or web app will translate across all devices and users. 

Step 2: Import your animals

Use the species switcher on the mobile or web app to access the correct species for your farm.

For Cattle - Import your herd from BCMS/ ScotEID

Use your Farm Software Username and Password from BCMS, or, if in Scotland, your Username and Password for ScotEID. You can set this connection up through the mobile or the web app - you only need to connect through one device for the account to be set up and your animals to import across to your Breedr account.

Step 3: Organise your animals

Organise your animals into a groups and locations and apply management tags where required. This allows for easier tracking and reporting of performance of animals throughout Breedr. 

Step 4: Opt in to send movements and registrations (optional) 

Once your account is connected to BCMS or ScotEID you can opt in to send movements and registrations through the Breedr app to your regulatory system within a simple 2 step process: 

1. Record the movement or registration
2. Go the Regulatory Dashboard on the web app to 'Approve and send'

Step 5: Set up your medicine cabinet

Add medicines to your online cabinet to allow you to then record medicine application through the app. With each application, medicine automatically depletes from your online medicine cabinet. Complete your regulatory and farm assurance needs through the Breedr mobile app. 

Step 6: Start weighing 

Start a speedy Quick weigh session or set up draft parameters depending on weight, sex or days on farm.

Check your equipment compatibility and get your device connected via bluetooth to automatically pull through EIDs and/or weights to your session. 

No compatible equipment? No worries - you can manually input IDs and weights where required!

Once you have started logging data against your animals, why not view and export this information in the Report section on the web app. Find more information on reports here
