Event Types

Herd Manager supports many health event types: vaccinations (CDT, rabies, etc.), dewormings (with product name and dosage), hoof trims, vet visits, illness and diagnosis, injury, surgery, lab tests, FAMACHA scores, body condition scores, and custom event types.

Health Timeline

Each goat's Health tab shows a chronological timeline of all health events, making it easy to review their complete medical history.

Withdrawal Period Tracking

When you administer medications, the app can track withdrawal periods for milk and meat. This helps ensure you're not using milk or selling animals during active withdrawal periods.
