Bulk Weaning
If you’re weaning a group of calves at the same time, you can use bulk actions to record weaning for multiple animals at once.
How to Bulk Wean
- Navigate to a group or animal list containing the animals to wean.
- Select the animals by checking their rows.
- Click Bulk Actions.
- Select Wean Offspring.
- Enter the Weaning Date (applied to all selected animals).
- Optionally enter individual weaning weights if you have them.
- Click Save.
Tips
- Create a smart group for unweaned calves. Use the “Weaned = No” filter with type = Calf to quickly find all calves that need to be weaned.
- Record individual weights when possible. Even in a bulk operation, individual weaning weights are more valuable than a group average for performance tracking.
- Use workings for weaning day. If you’re processing calves through a chute on weaning day, consider creating a working to track all the tasks (weaning, vaccinations, tagging) in one session.
