Agriculture · Goat and Sheep Farm Management Software

Mobs, breeding females, births, worm control, fleece and sales in one system.

Manage goat and sheep flocks as mobs and as individual breeding animals. Joining groups, scanning results, kidding and lambing, weaning counts, drench rounds, shearing, paddock moves, milk and market sales are recorded in one place. The shepherd enters events from a phone in the paddock, and the owner reads weaned young per breeding female without counting tags by hand.

  • Mobs, breeding stock and paddocks loaded from your notebooks
  • Worm-control and vaccination rounds set up as your vet advises
  • Shearing and sale formats shaped to your wool buyer and market

Goat and sheep farms keep mobs, breeding does and ewes, sires, births, drench rounds, shearing and sales in Goat and Sheep Farm Management Software, configured by GullySystem. Records link each kid or lamb to its mother and sire, so weaned young per breeding female can be read by sire and by mob. Shepherds enter events on a phone.

Where it breaks today

What goes wrong before the software.

A lost kid has no mother on paper

Multiple births happen in the same lambing paddock. When young go missing, the shepherd cannot match the loss to a ewe or doe, so weak mothers stay in the flock.

Sire performance is guessed

A ram runs with a group for several weeks, and the crop is credited to whoever the shepherd remembers. Buying a replacement sire is a hunch.

Drenching follows the calendar

Every mob gets the same product on the same day, even when egg counts and eyelid colour say only some animals need it. Resistance and drug cost both climb.

Grass is moved by sight

Without a count of grazing days per paddock, an overgrazed pasture looks like bad luck. The mob has already stripped it by the time anyone notices.

Fleece and live weights are scattered

Shearers call out weights, the clip is graded later, and the wool buyer’s statement arrives against bales, not sheep. Culling stays subjective.

Movement papers hold up a sale

A truck waits at the gate while someone writes a count by class, tag list and destination. Missing details can send the load back.

How it runs

How the work flows through it, step by step.

  1. 1

    Mob set-up

    Mobs are created by species and class, each with a count and a paddock. Breeding females, sires and replacements also receive individual records and tags.

  2. 2

    Joining and scanning

    A breeding group is joined to a named sire for a set period. Scan or pregnancy-check results follow, separating single, twin and empty females.

  3. 3

    Kidding and lambing

    Females move to the birthing paddock. Each birth is entered with litter size, sex, birth weight and mothering, and losses are recorded with a reason.

  4. 4

    Rearing and weaning

    Young are tagged, drenched and vaccinated by mob, then weaned and weighed. Weaned young per breeding female is calculated for each sire and each mother.

  5. 5

    Fleece and milk

    Sheep are shorn and the fleece weighed, graded and baled. Dairy goats are milked and the yield recorded by doe or by batch.

  6. 6

    Sale

    Animals leave on a sale or movement sheet with count, class, tag list and weights. The buyer is invoiced, and the mob list is reduced to match.

Modules

What is inside.

Every module can be switched on, left out or changed to match how your team already works.

Mob and individual register

Keep mobs by species, class and paddock, with the count and the shepherd in charge. Breeding stock and sires also hold a tag, breed, birth date, dam, sire and health file.

Joining and scanning

Attach each breeding group to its buck or ram, with the dates the sire went in and came out. Scan results mark each female as single, twin, triplet or empty, so feeding and paddock plans can follow.

Birth and mothering log

Record each birth with litter size, sex, birth weight and whether the young took to the mother. Fostered and bottle-fed young stay linked to their true dam.

Weaning and survival

Follow young from tagging to weaning with deaths and causes noted. The share of weaned young per female is shown for every sire, mother and joining group.

Worm control and vaccination plan

Set the drench and vaccine rounds your vet advises. Faecal egg counts or colour scores are recorded per animal, and the product, dose and withdrawal date go on the mob record.

Foot care and flystrike checks

Schedule foot trimming, footbathing and fly prevention by mob. Lame or struck animals are listed with treatment notes until they are cleared.

Fleece grading and bales

Enter shearing dates, greasy fleece weight per sheep and grade. Bales are numbered, and lot sheets for the wool buyer are printed from these entries.

Paddock rotation and grazing days

Record each move of a mob between paddocks. Grazing days, rest periods and stocking rates are shown per paddock before the next move is planned.

Goat milk records

For dairy goats, enter milk per doe or per batch and note lactation stage. Deliveries to the milk buyer are set beside the farm’s own totals.

Feed, hay and mineral stock

Issue hay, grain and mineral blocks to mobs. Stock left is shown, and a low level raises a reorder note.

Sale sheets and invoices

Prepare the movement sheet with counts by class, tag list and weights. The buyer’s invoice follows from the same entries, and mob counts fall to match.

Solutions inside

The business modules it is built from.

Each one is also available on its own, or inside a system built for you.

  • Batch and Serial Tracking

    Mobs are tracked as lots with a count and class, while breeding stock carry their own tag, so any animal traces to its mob.

  • Service Reminders

    Drench and vaccine rounds come due by mob, and the shepherd sees which groups are waiting before the next paddock move.

  • Stock Tracking and Alerts

    Hay bales, grain and mineral blocks drop as they are issued to mobs, and a low-stock alert appears before the shed is empty.

  • Task Management

    Each trimming round or fly check becomes a task with an owner and a due date, closed when the mob has been handled.

  • Invoice Management

    Counts, weights and prices from the movement sheet become the buyer’s invoice, so the figures on the truck and the bill agree.

  • Dashboards and KPIs

    Weaned young per female and loss rates sit on one screen, split by sire, mother and joining group, for the breeding manager.

  • Document Management

    Lot sheets, bale lists and buyer statements for each clip are filed with the shearing record they came from.

Common questions

Questions owners ask before a demo.

Can it follow a kid or lamb back to its mother?

Yes. Each birth links the young to a dam and sire. Fostered young keep their true parents on the record and show the carer as a separate note.

Can we keep unsorted market lambs as a counted mob?

Yes. Only breeding stock need individual tags. Market animals can be handled by mob count and weight sample until they are sold.

How does it help with worm control?

Egg counts or eyelid colour scores go against each animal. The list of animals needing treatment shrinks to those that scored high, and each dose is recorded.

Can sheep and goats share the same paddock plan?

Yes. Both species are mobs with a paddock. Grazing days are counted for each, so a shared paddock shows its combined load.

What does the wool buyer receive?

A lot sheet listing bales, grades and weights from the shearing entries. The format is arranged with your buyer in the first workshop.

Does it record goat milk for a processor?

Yes. Daily litres per doe or per batch are stored, and each delivery to the buyer is set against the farm’s own total.

Can the shepherd work without a signal?

No, entries need a connection. Paddock notes can be kept on paper and keyed in when the shepherd returns to the yards.

Who keeps the flock records if the farm leaves?

The farm keeps them, and mob, animal and breeding records can be exported in a file format written into the proposal. The export format is agreed before work begins.

How are the first mobs loaded?

The office supplies counts, breeding lists and recent joining dates. The shepherd then confirms each mob against the paddock before records go live.
