‼️ 🆕 Adding a Re-Breeding Task 🆕 ‼️

Available Does / Rebreed Reminders 

(new in iOS version 4.11 and Android 3.11):

  1. There is a new setting in the settings screen ‘Rebreed weeks after litter born’.  You can use this to set how many weeks after a litter is born that you normally rebreed does. It will default to 3 weeks initially.
  2. The available does screen has two tabs. Does available now and Does available later.
  3. Does available now will show all active does who are available to breed now. If a bred doe is 7 or more days past due(no results have been entered) the app will treat it as a missed litter and show the doe as available to breed now.
  4. The screen will have an Add Breeding button to create a breeding from there and will pre populate the doe for you when you create the breeding that way.
  5. Does available later will show all active does that are already bred or on a litter along with the date that they are available to breed again based on the new setting.
  6. The screen will have an Add Task button that will create a task to rebreed the doe. It will pre populate the reminder date and time to be 3:00 pm on the date the doe is available. You can change it to whatever time works best for you before saving it. From that point it’s just like any other task and you’ll get a notification for it on the date/time set.
  7. Changing the number of weeks setting will not change the reminder date of any rebreed tasks already created. For tasks already created, edit the task and adjust the date.
