Rabbitry Breeding & Litter Tracker – Excel & Google Sheets Spreadsheet (Rabbit Breeding Log, Kindling Calendar, Litter, Grow-Out & Sales Records)
Keep your rabbitry records in one spreadsheet instead of a notebook, a phone calendar and scraps of paper, and without a monthly software fee.
Enter the date you bred a doe. The tracker works out palpation day, nest-box day and the due date, using timings you set yourself. Rows change color as a kindling date gets close, so you can see at a glance who needs a nest box this week.
What's inside (9 tabs):
- Start Here: step-by-step setup instructions in the workbook
- Dashboard: pick a year to see active does and bucks, does due in the next 7 days, overdue checks, litters not yet weaned, kits born, average litter size, survival to weaning, kindling rate, income, expenses, net, unpaid balances and cost per kit weaned. Also a monthly income vs. expenses chart and a per-doe performance table.
- Settings: gestation length, nest-box day, palpation day, weaning age and the "due soon" window, plus editable dropdown lists for breeds, colors, statuses and expense categories
- Herd: one row per rabbit with ID, sex, breed, color, birth date, sire and dam, cage, tattoo or ear ID and status. Age, times bred, litters, kits born and kits weaned calculate automatically. Duplicate IDs are highlighted.
- Breeding Log: doe and buck dropdowns, with calculated palpate, nest-box and due dates, days-to-due, and alerts (Palpate now, Nest box in now, Due soon, Overdue)
- Litters: link a litter to its pairing and the doe and buck fill in. Records born alive and dead, weaned count, kits kept and sold, survival %, target wean date and a "ready to wean" highlight.
- Grow-Out Weights: weights at weeks 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 16 for each kit or litter, with gain columns
- Sales & Waitlist: buyer, price, deposit, payment status, pickup date and balance due
- Expenses: feed, hay, bedding, vet, equipment and more, totaled by month on the Dashboard
