United States
Your sheep and goats, organized head by head
Throf is a herd management platform for sheep and goat farms in the United States. Keep a record for every ewe, doe, ram and buck, follow breeding, lambing and kidding, log treatments and weights, and see cost per head and net profit on iPhone, Android or the web.
Sheep and goats in the United States are raised on everything from range flocks in the West to small farms and homesteads across the Midwest, the South and the East. Texas has long been a major sheep and goat state, and meat goats such as Boer crosses have grown in popularity alongside wool and hair sheep.
Many operations are family-run, and youth programs such as 4-H and FFA bring a new generation into raising and showing lambs and goats, where keeping clear records of weights, feed and costs is part of the project.
Holiday and specialty markets matter too: demand for lamb and goat rises around holidays such as Easter, Eid al-Adha and Christmas, so timing breeding to reach the right weight on the right date pays off.
What breeders face
- Records on paper and spreadsheetsBreeding dates, kidding notes and treatments end up split between a barn notebook and a phone.
- Feed and hay costsHay and grain prices swing, and without cost per head it is hard to know which animals pay their way.
- Lambing and kidding lossesMissing a due date or a weak newborn costs you a whole season of work.
- Selling at the right weightHitting market weight for a holiday sale needs breeding and weight records you can trust.
How Throf helps
- One record per headTag number and colour, breed, sex, birth date, weight, photo, dam and sire, with Excel import and RFID tag support.
- Breeding and due-date alertsTrack mating, pregnancy, close-to-birth, lambing and kidding (twins, triplets), weaning and drying-off with reminders.
- Weights and fatteningRecord weights per head or per group and follow fattening to pick animals ready for market.
- Cost per head and net profitLog feed, vet, labour and sales and Throf calculates cost per head and net profit automatically.
Seasons that matter
Many flocks and herds breed in the fall for late-winter and spring lambing and kidding. Demand peaks around Easter, Eid al-Adha and the year-end holidays, and county and state fair season shapes youth projects.
