About this app

Hutchwise keeps your rabbitry's records on your phone: rabbits, pedigrees, breedings and
litters. Record a breeding and it plans every step after it, with reminders. Free, no account, no
subscription, no limit on rabbits, and it works offline.

ONE BREEDING, THE WHOLE SCHEDULE
- Record a breeding and Hutchwise plans palpation (day 12), nest box (day 28), kindling (day 31),
nest box out, weaning and breed-back
- A "Today" list of what is due or overdue across every doe, and what is coming up
- Reminders at the hour you choose, plus an optional heads-up the evening before nest box day
and kindling
- Not kindled by day 32? It tells you to check her, and to call your vet by day 34
- Palpated empty? It watches for false pregnancy around day 17
- Every offset is yours to change: wean at 4, 6 or 8 weeks; breed back at 14, 21, 28, 35 or 42
days, or at weaning

LITTERS
- Kindling: born alive and dead; fostering in and out; weaning count and survival
- Weigh the whole litter: average per kit, weekly gain, and a growth chart against the ARBA fryer
class (3 lb 8 oz to 5 lb 8 oz, under 70 days)
- Keep a kit in one tap: parents, birth date and breed filled in

PEDIGREES
- Three generations from your own records, plus ancestors typed from papers for bought-in stock
- Share a clean one-page pedigree PDF with your rabbitry and breeder name
- Pairing check: the litter's inbreeding coefficient and the ancestors the buck and doe share,
before you breed

YOUR HERD
- Ear tattoo, breed, colour or variety (any, including your own), birth date, registration,
cage, photo, notes
- Weights with a growth chart, in lb and oz or kg and g
- Sold, deceased and culled rabbits move to an archive, so pedigrees stay complete
- Search by name, tattoo, breed, colour or cage

STATS
- Kindling rate, average litter, average weaned and wean survival
- Kits born month by month
- Doe and buck performance tables: see your best producers

YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS
- Everything is stored on your phone: no account, no cloud, nothing to lock you out of
- Back up every rabbit, breeding and photo to one file, and restore it on a new phone
- Export rabbits and breedings to CSV for spreadsheets or other software
- Add the breeding schedule to your phone's calendar

Built for meat rabbitries, show breeders, 4-H families and homesteaders: New Zealand,
Californian, Rex, Holland Lop, Netherland Dwarf and every other breed.

Schedules follow university extension and FAO guidance and are a starting point. For a doe in
trouble, call your vet.
