PipNest: Bird Breeding Manager

PipNest is a bird breeding manager and aviary record book for hobby and professional breeders. Keep every bird, pair, egg and chick in one place, see what is due today, and never miss a hatch. It works fully offline, needs no account, and your records stay on your phone.

YOUR AVIARY AT A GLANCE
Home shows the hatch windows opening today, your reminders, and how many birds, pairs, eggs and chicks you have. Every number opens the matching list.

BIRD RECORDS
• Species, sex, ring (band) number, status and life stage for every bird
• Photos, weights with growth charts, tags, custom fields and notes
• A timeline of everything that happened to each bird
• Fast offline search by name, ring number or notes, even with thousands of birds

BREEDING PAIRS, NESTS AND EGGS
• Form pairs and plan new pairings: PipNest shows the ancestors two birds share in their recorded lineage
• Nests, breeding cycles and clutches
• Record eggs in a few taps, candle them, and mark fertile, clear or hatched eggs
• Expected hatch date and hatch window calculated from each species' incubation period
• Chicks with development milestones such as weaning and fledging

BREEDING CALENDAR
Month, week, day and agenda views show egg laying, hatch windows, expected hatch dates, milestones and your own reminders, with notifications so you don't forget candling or ringing.

PEDIGREE AND FAMILY TREE
Trace any bird's family tree up to six generations, with parents, siblings and offspring.

BREEDING STATISTICS
Fertility rate, hatch rate, eggs per clutch and chicks per cycle, for every pair and species and for your whole aviary.

AVIARIES AND CAGES
Organise aviaries, rooms, cages and nest boxes, see occupancy, and move birds one by one or in bulk.

FOR EVERY SPECIES YOU KEEP
Canaries, budgerigars (budgies), lovebirds, cockatiels, zebra and Gouldian finches, parrots, parrotlets, conures, cockatoos, macaws, pigeons, doves, quail, chickens, ducks, geese and turkeys, each with its own incubation period. You can add your own species too.

PipNest is a record-keeping tool. Lineage and hatch dates are based on the information you enter; it does not give veterinary or genetic advice.
