Overview

  • Rabbit profiles are where each rabbit becomes a complete record instead of just a name in a list.

When To Use

  • You need complete pedigree data, health history, weight history, photos, show info, or printable documents.

Step-By-Step Guide

1

Open the correct rabbit profile

Start from the herd list so you are editing the right rabbit and not a different one with a similar name.

1.1 Open Rabbits

Go to Rabbits from the sidebar or mobile menu.

What You Should See
  • You should see your herd list.
1.2 Open the rabbit

Click or tap the rabbit you want to work on.

What You Should See
  • You should see the rabbit's profile page or modal with multiple sections or tabs.
You Should Now Have
  • You are now looking at the detailed record for the correct rabbit.
2

Fill in the fields that improve the record most

Focus on useful information first instead of trying to complete every optional field in one sitting.

2.1 Add parent links if you know them

Use the sire and dam fields to link real parent records whenever possible.

Watch For This
  • Linking actual parent records is better than typing names manually when the parent already exists in the app.
If You Don't See This
  • If the correct parent does not appear in the selector, stop and check that parent's saved status in the Rabbits list.
2.2 Fill in operating details

Add notes, health history, weight history, registration data, or documents only in the areas that truly help your workflow.

Why This Step Matters
  • You can leave unknown or irrelevant sections for later.
  • Start with data you expect to reference again, not every possible field.
2.3 Save and re-open if needed

Save your changes and confirm the information stays on the profile.

What You Should See
  • Saved values should remain visible when you return to the profile section.
You Should Now Have
  • The rabbit profile now holds enough detail to support daily records and pedigree work.

Create a cleaner pedigree or document output

This helps you verify that the profile information is turning into the document you actually expect.

3.1 Open the pedigree or export action

Use the pedigree, birth certificate, or export control from the rabbit profile.

What You Should See
  • You should see a preview, editor, or export modal.
3.2 Review what will show

Check logos, linked parents, visible fields, and included sections before exporting.

Watch For This
  • Private notes only appear when a setting explicitly includes them.
3.3 Export only after the preview looks right

Generate the PDF or image once the preview matches your expectations.

What You Should See
  • You should receive a file or share/export option for the pedigree or certificate.
You Should Now Have
  • Your document output should now reflect the rabbit profile more accurately and with less guesswork.

You're Done When

  • The rabbit profile saves the details you entered.
  • Parent information appears correctly in the profile or pedigree view when linked.
  • The export preview matches what you expected before you generate the file.

Common Mistakes

  • Entering manual parent names when a real linked parent record already exists.
  • Assuming every profile section must be filled in even when your breeding program only needs a few tabs.

FAQ

Do notes show up on exported pedigrees?

Only if the related export appearance settings include them. Private notes stay private unless an export option explicitly includes them.

Can I use a profile even if I do not know every genotype detail yet?

Yes. Unknown loci can stay incomplete and you can refine them later.

When To Contact Support

  • Linked parents disappear or fail to save even though you selected them correctly.
  • The pedigree or export preview is missing data that is definitely saved on the rabbit profile.
