Bird Breeding App for Breeders

A breeding season generates its own paperwork fast — which birds are paired, which pair laid this week, which eggs are still incubating, which hatched, and which chicks came from which parents. Pakhal is a bird breeding app that keeps all of that connected in one place, so a clutch you log today is still exactly where you left it when the eggs start hatching weeks later, and a chick's pedigree is correct the moment it exists rather than something you fill in afterwards from memory.

Pairing that remembers its own history

Pick a cock and hen, record the pairing date and cage, and that pair's page becomes the running record of everything it produces — every clutch, every egg, every chick — for as long as you keep breeding from it.

Clutch and egg tracking, egg by egg

Log a clutch against its nest box, then track each egg individually: laid date, status — incubating, fertile, infertile, hatched, fostered, broken, discontinued — and hatch date. A clutch's progress is visible at a glance, not reconstructed from memory at the end of the season.

Hatch records that become pedigree automatically

Convert a hatched egg into a new bird record with a ring number and sex, and its sire and dam carry over from the pair automatically. There's no separate step to record a chick's parentage — it's already correct the moment the bird exists.

Unpair and re-pair without losing anything

Split a pair to try a different match, and both birds become available again — nothing about their past clutches or their chicks' pedigree changes. You can re-pair, unpair, and pair again across a season without ever rewriting history.

Genetics recorded the way breeders actually discuss them

Base colours, visual mutations and split (carrier) status are logged per species, including finer detail fields some species need — a Fischer's Lovebird's B1 or B2 status, for example — rather than one generic tag field that doesn't match how a breeder actually describes a bird.

A line-breeding check before you commit a pair

When you're setting up a pair, Pakhal checks recent generations on both sides and flags it if the cock and hen are related — useful context before you commit to a pairing, without stopping you from making the call yourself.

Active and unpaired pairs, sorted clearly

Pairs are split into Active and Unpaired sections, so a season's working pairs never get lost among ones you've since split — and any bird from an unpaired pairing shows up as available the moment you go looking for a new match for it.
