Animal record — what's on it¶

An animal's record is a single continuous scrolling page (not tabs) — everything about the animal lives on the same page, in a fixed order. This guide walks through it top to bottom.

Editing is only possible for Denmark

The pencil icon at the top right, which opens the edit form (see Getting your animals into LAMB), is only visible when the Fjárvís connection is disabled — today, only Denmark. In Iceland there is no edit icon on this page at all, since animal data comes from Fjárvís. Icelandic users can still add a photo, notes, and group membership though (see below) — those aren't locked.

At the top: photo, name, and key identifiers¶

A circular photo (tap to take a new one or pick from the gallery — only one photo at a time, no multi-photo gallery), name, valnr, and chips for gender, birth year, and ear tag. Colored dots on the right show group membership and open the groups screen when tapped.

The export icon at the top opens a menu: PDF, share as an image, email a PDF, CSV, Excel, or email an Excel file.

Pedigree¶

Mother, maternal grandmother, maternal grandfather (under the mother), father, paternal grandmother/grandfather (under the father), foster mother (if any), and a list of every offspring of this animal (every animal in the settlement recorded with it as mother or father). Each relative/offspring is a link that opens that animal's own record. This is ancestry/descendants only — there's no sibling lookup.

Mating¶

Only appears if a mating record exists for the animal (see Mating registration) — ram, date, and year.

Only the latest record, not the full history

This section shows only the ewe's most recent mating record, not a full history of every mating. No pregnancy scan data (see Pregnancy scan) appears here at all.

Physical characteristics¶

Color, color code, color markings, horn type, litter count, litter description, offspring count, size.

Performance scores¶

Milk ability, fertility, meat quality — only shown if the animal has scores recorded.

Breeding values¶

Total index, female index, male index, conformation, fat, carcass quality, live weight (maternal/direct), slaughter weight (maternal/direct), overall fat, overall muscle, scrapie susceptibility.

Display only — comes from elsewhere

This data is never calculated in the app — it's synced directly from the database (originally from Fjárvís) and shown as-is. No code explicitly restricts this section to Iceland, but in practice the underlying table is only populated for Icelandic animals, so it simply doesn't appear for Danish animals today. If no data exists, you'll see "No breeding value information recorded."

Additional information¶

Registration date, farm name, gender, birth year, breeding status, status/fate (with a special red warning if Fjárvís event code 10 is ambiguous — "slaughtered, adult"), details, DNA info (a link to the DNA screen), death date, death year, stock number, animal ID, transfer events in/out, production stage, flag 1, flag 2.

Record note history¶

A merged summary of every comment recorded on this animal's weighings, births, and matings — display only, can't be edited here.

Notes¶

A separate section for general notes — this is the one place you can add a new note directly (a text field and a send button), and delete your own notes.

Groups¶

See Groups — add to or remove from groups directly from this page.

At the bottom: Weights, Judgements, DNA¶

A bar at the bottom has four buttons: Dashboard, Weights (see Weight registration), Judgements, and DNA.

Judgements opens a list of the animal's judgement records (scores for conformation, muscle, posture, hindquarters, thigh, wool, total and final score, plus flags like bite defect, navel rupture, cryptorchidism, twisted feet). Can be exported as CSV/Excel or emailed. !!! warning "You can't register a new judgement here" — there's no + button or any other way to create a judgement record from this screen — it's view-only.
DNA opens a list of the animal's DNA results. !!! tip "Unlike judgements, you can add a DNA result here" — a + button opens a registration form for a new DNA result directly from this list.

Based on lamb41/lib/screens/animals/animal_detail_screen.dart, lamb41/lib/screens/animals/judgements_list_screen.dart, and lamb41/lib/screens/animals/dna_results_screen.dart. See also Finding animals and Groups.
