Features
RabbitBreeder is built for rabbits alone. That is the whole reason this list can be specific: nothing here is a general livestock field renamed, and several of these modules have no equivalent in a product that also has to describe a horse.
Breeding cycle
The cycle is modelled as a state machine, not a calendar reminder. Dates follow from the mating record, and a doe that misses moves through the same states as one that takes.
- Mating, palpation, nest box, kindling and weaning as a single tracked cycle with dates derived from the service date
- Receptivity observations recorded and used in planning
- Palpation window scheduled from the service date
- Nest box due on day 28, scheduled from the mating
- Kits born alive, stillborn and weaned as separate counts
- Fostering kits between does, with both litters kept correct
- Intensive, semi-intensive and extensive rhythms, with the doe's condition respected
- A litter tracked from kindling through checks and weaning as one record
- Task templates that fire from the cycle, not from a to-do list
Genetics and pedigree
Pedigrees are generated from the breeding records themselves, so ancestry cannot drift out of sync with what actually happened.
- Three-generation pedigrees generated from breeding records
- Inbreeding coefficient from the recorded pedigree
- Pairing suggestions checked against pedigree and known risk alleles
- Coat-colour prediction across the A, B, C, D and E loci, including the epistasis that lets one locus hide another
- Warnings before a mating that can produce a lethal or health-risk genotype
- Named breeding programmes with their own goals and stock
- Doe and buck productivity ranked on recorded output
Health and medication
Treatment and loss are recorded against the individual animal, which is what makes an outbreak visible while it is still small.
- Health events recorded against the individual rabbit
- Medication courses with doses, intervals and reminders
- Withdrawal periods tracked so treated animals are not sold early
- Editable care protocols per farm, with per-animal overrides
- Mortality and incident logging with cause, stage and cage dimensions
- Losses classified so patterns become visible over months
- Abnormal results escalate instead of sitting unread
Barn operations
The barn half of the product. Scanning a cage card is faster than finding an animal in a list, and it works with one hand.
- QR cage cards that open the animal on the phone
- Scan to move an animal between cages
- Work sessions recorded as they happen in the barn
- Scan to complete the task in front of you
- Live cage occupancy, kept in step with every movement
- Daily work planned across the farm rather than per animal
- Working hours per farm, so overdue work escalates on your schedule and not at 3am
Stock and processing
Animals destined for sale and animals kept for breeding are different populations, and mixing them is the commonest failure in rabbitry record keeping.
- Young stock tracked as groups, separate from the breeding herd
- Farm-configurable ear-number and tattoo rules
- Scored evaluation sessions with photographs
- Ownership transfer between farms with the record intact
- Group processing batches with per-batch outcomes
- Processing recorded against inventory, not guessed
Feeding
Rations are formulated from an ingredient database, so feed cost per animal comes out of real composition rather than an estimate.
- Ration formulation against nutrient targets by life stage
- Feed ingredient database with cereal and bran compositions
- Free public feed calculator, no account required
- Feed cost per animal and per litter from actual formulations
Sales and traceability
Selling stock is part of the record, not a separate spreadsheet. A passport travels with the animal to its buyer.
- QR animal passports that travel with the animal to its buyer
- Listings for stock, meat, pelts and equipment between farms
- Buyer conversations attached to the listing they concern
- Moderation and authorisation on published listings
Knowledge base
Reference material that is cited rather than asserted, in every language the product speaks.
- 62 breed profiles with weights, litter sizes and carcass data, each citing its registry and research sources
- Long-form articles with cited sources, published in seven languages
- The research and evidence limits behind the workflows
- Interface and content in English, Ukrainian, Polish, Romanian, Czech, Slovak and German
What a multi-species model cannot say
A platform that also serves dogs, cattle and alpacas has to model an animal generically. That is a real advantage for a mixed holding and a real cost for a rabbitry: there is no generic field for a nest box due on day 28, for a doe's rebreeding rhythm, for young stock held as a group rather than as individuals, or for a processing batch. Those are not settings we added — they are the shape of the product.
