What Records should you keep to Raise Rabbits Successfully?

It’s a fact: if you want to be successful in raising show rabbits, record keeping is vital. But which ones really matter?

As a teen, I made up all kinds of record sheets for my bunnies. I had record sheets to track nearly everything: litters, shows, feed economics, health, hereditary traits, rabbits sold, chores accomplished, show quality of developing juniors, you name it. I had a lot more fun making record sheets than I had filling them out. In fact, I hardly ever filled out most of them.

Eventually I cut the fat out of my record book. It wasn’t as sophisticated anymore, but I trimmed it down to the records I actually kept and needed. And I was left with the following:

–Pedigrees of course: (Hint: custom-designed pedigrees are more fun than software-generated ones.)

–Rabbits Sold: Write down every bunny sold and who you sold it to. That way, when someone contacts you about the rabbit they sold them, you’re not sitting there wondering which rabbit they bought.

–Income and Expenses: Not fun, but must be done.

–Doe Breeding Cards: This is important. Tells you at a glance who was bred to who and when. Easy reference to look up kits’ birth dates, as well as to keep track of which of your does consistently produce nice offspring.

–Show records when Grand Champion Legs are won: Placements that didn’t win legs became extraneous. I mean, two years later, do we really care that Chad beat Rocky…AGAIN?

–Handy Dandy Calendar: To doodle on regarding show dates and due dates.

-The Rabbitry Journal: All my other extraneous records begone, and enter the Journal. This was the single most helpful record I kept. Every Sunday I made an entry in the rabbitry journal, just rambling about what happened in the past week. I made notes on how the breeding program was going, litters born and how they went. I jotted a recap of shows I went to. If I was trying out a new feed supplement or had to purchase pellets, I wrote it down. If a bunny was sneezing, or I suspected one of having fur mites, I wrote it down. Basically I jotted down any notable events that happened in the past week. That way I could keep track of how my management practices were evolving and affecting the success of my rabbitry. If a problem occurred, I could trace it back to where it began and what was happening at the time.

Show Records – I used this one on a rabbitry-wide basis: I only kept one sheet for the whole rabbitry and noted several rabbits’ placements on it in each show. But you could print one of these for each rabbit if you prefer.

Print-Quality Pedigrees

Breeders Assistant's print-quality pedigrees can be customized in many ways to suit your needs e.g. to include different fields, change colors, fonts, include watermarks, photos etc.

Our print-quality pedigrees feature:

Between 3 and 8 generations of ancestors.
Include photos and watermarks.
Optional breeder logo.
Show highlighted ancestors, e.g. common ancestors or repeat ancestors.
Choose the fields that are displayed, separately for the subject animal and each ancestor generation individually.
Have titled animals colored how you want them.
With multi-tagging, include tag symbols in pedigrees. [requires the Professional Edition (or better)]
Choose from many different pedigree layouts - e.g. whether to include the signature line, whether to have a separate photo box, whether to include a breeder logo area, etc.
Include calligraphic text for common wordings such as 'Pedigree', 'Pedigree Certificate', 'Trial Pedigree' etc.
Include artistic borders and corners - all fully configurable. Breeders Assistant includes sample imagery - but you can use your own too.
Customize the colors and fonts used throughout the pedigree.
Choose between several styles of ancestors, including even circular pedigrees.
Have sideways-on text - useful for squeezing a 5G or even 6G pedigree onto portrait A4/Letter paper.
Print portrait or landscape on any size of paper with advanced printer support e.g. for manual tray loading, special papers etc.
You can save printed pedigrees as images (PNG or JPEG) - e.g. for use in email.
Control animal title colors - both 'before' and 'after' titles separately.
Print pedigree cover sheets for folded pedigrees.

Photos In Pedigrees

There are several ways to incorporate photos (JPEG format) into print-quality pedigrees.

You can include a picture box in the top right of the pedigree to display the subject animal's photo. Simply store the photo on your computer in the normal way e.g. as a JPEG taken from camera, then within Breeders Assistant add the photo filename to the animal's record details. The photo will then automatically appear in pedigrees that include a picture box.

You can also include photos within the ancestor grid of the pedigree.

Watermark Images In Pedigrees

4 Generation Pedigree with Watermark, Decorative Border, Grid and Signature Line

You can set a watermark image to use as the background of any print-quality pedigree. The image need not be a photo of one of your animals, you could use a clipart drawing or similar. We do not include clipart with the product, but this is readily obtainable online.

The watermark needs to be faded sufficiently to avoid it obscuring the pedigree that appears on top. Breeders Assistant can fade the images - just enter a fade percentage and BA does it for you.

There are several options for controlling watermarks, including:

Watermarks can be set separately for each different pedigree, contract, mating certificate¹ etc. you use.
Watermarks in pedigrees can either be fixed files (e.g. a breed study), or they can be the animal's own photo.
You can control the watermark alignment, tiling, fading, position and magnification.
