Joining (Mob)

Creating a joining record is easy as Drag & Drop

Updated this week

For Mob Management subscriptions, joining records will automatically be created when a mob with the age classes Bulls, Bull Weaners, Rams or Ram Weaners

are moved into the same paddock as mobs with age classes Cows, Heifers or Heifer Weaners, Ewes, Ewe Hoggets or Ewe Weaners.

Note: If a weaning record is applied, the Age class of the mob is updated to Weaners. Therefore a joining record will be initiated if your Ram Weaners or Bull Weaners are left in the same paddock as their mothers. To avoid this, move those calves and lambs out of the paddock before applying your weaning records.

On the Mobile App select the Map icon, then the Livestock tab, Drag & Drop the Bulls or Rams into the same paddock as the Cows, Heifers or Ewes.
