The flock book that fits in a coat pocket.

Raeeya keeps a record for every animal you own — breeding, lambing, weights, treatments and the date a withdrawal period clears. It opens with a tag scan, it works in a pen with no signal, and it does not need you to remember anything on a Sunday evening.

Illustrative record with sample data. Raeeya records and reminds — it does not certify compliance or replace your vet's instructions.

The honest position

A 300-head flock managed out of one person's head.

Not because the farmer is careless. Because the work happens standing up, in the rain, with both hands busy, and the notebook is in the truck. So the wall gets a column of tag numbers, and everything that matters about those numbers stays uncounted.

The record leaves the farm the day the person who kept it does. Why we built this

Milk leaves the tank inside a withdrawal window

An animal is treated on a Tuesday. Nobody writes the clear date anywhere the milking parlour will see it. The single most consequential date on the farm survives on a scrap of feed-bag paper.
Which ewe aborted last season?

The answer decides whether she stays. It exists as a recollection, contested at the pen gate, and it gets settled by whoever sounds most certain rather than by what happened.
The best ram is a guess

You know which lambs grew. You do not know, on paper, which sire they came from. So the keep-or-cull list is built from impressions and last year's good feeling about a particular animal.
Veterinary spend traces to nothing

The invoice is a total. It is not attached to the animals it treated, so nobody can tell whether the money bought an outcome or repeated a problem in the same three pens every year.

The software that exists assumes a desk

Why it fails

Every flock system we looked at expects a connection and a keyboard. So it gets filled in on Sunday evening from memory — which is the exact failure it was bought to fix. Raeeya is built for the other place: standing in a pen, cold hands, no signal, thirty seconds before the animal moves.

One record per animal

Open a record at the gate. It stays open for the animal's life.

Scan or type the tag and the animal's whole history is on the screen: who her parents were, what she has produced, what she has been given and when it clears. Everything you add builds the same record, and the record is the flock's asset — not yours to carry around in your head.

Sample data for illustration. Status is shown with an icon and words as well as colour, so it still reads in bright sun or on a cracked screen.

Three taps

Logging a treatment, start to finish.

This is the whole interaction. It is designed to be finished before the animal walks away, by someone wearing gloves, without taking the other hand off the race gate.

Tap one — the animal

Point the camera at the tag, or key in the last four digits. If she is already in the flock, her record opens; if she is not, it is created on the spot.

Tap two — the event

Four buttons, sized for a thumb in a glove. The list learns what you actually use, so the treatment you gave forty times last month is the first thing on the screen.

Tap three — the clear date

Raeeya proposes the dates you entered last time for the same product and lets you change them. Save, and the animal is flagged everywhere until the date passes. You enter the dates; we hold you to them.

None of that needed a connection. Every screen above works with the phone in aeroplane mode at the far end of the holding. Entries queue on the handset, and the moment the phone finds a bar of signal — the yard, the road, the house — they go up on their own. Nothing waits for you to remember to press send.

What the sync indicator tells you

Always visible

Offline · 3 entries queued Synced · 07:12 today

The pip sits in the corner of every screen and states the position in words as well as colour: how many entries are still on the handset, and when the last successful sync happened. You should never have to wonder whether what you typed survived.

What is in it

Seven things, each of which earns its place.

Raeeya is deliberately not a farm management suite. It does not do payroll, field mapping or feed procurement. It keeps animal records, properly, in the place the animals are.

Per-animal record by tag

Scan the tag or type it. Breed, birth date, sire, dam, pen, purchase or born-on-farm, and everything that has happened since — on one screen, in one scroll.

Camera optional · keypad always

Withdrawal-period flags

Log a treatment, enter the clear dates for milk and for meat, and the animal carries a visible hold until they pass. The flag shows on the flock list, in search, and on the parlour view — with an icon and words, not just a colour.

Recorded and reminded, not certified

Breeding, lambing, weaning

Mating dates and the ram used, scanning results, lambing outcomes with birth weights and losses, weaning weights. A season becomes a row you can read rather than an argument you can have.

Kidding and calving too

Weight gain by bloodline

Every weighing is stamped against the animal and its sire. Over two seasons that becomes a plain comparison of which bloodline is putting on weight and which is not, without a spreadsheet.

Needs two seasons to be useful

Treatment & vaccination schedule

Boosters, drenches and routine work come round on a calendar rather than in a panic. Reminders arrive per animal or per group, and a completed treatment closes itself out on the record.

Group or individual

Full offline operation

Not a degraded read-only mode. Create animals, log treatments, record weights, search the whole flock — all of it with no bars. The handset holds the data and reconciles when it can.

Conflicts resolved by timestamp

Cooperative view

Shared rams and breeding stock move between members without their history being lost at the gate. A cooperative can see the animals it owns across every farm holding them, and nothing else.

Per-farm permissions

Keep or cull

Next season's list comes from the record, not from recollection.

Weigh the lambs at the crush, tap the number in. Because every weight is already tied to an animal and every animal already knows its sire, the comparison you have been making in your head for years arrives as a line on a chart.

No new hardware. No separate weighing app. The scale head reading gets typed once, standing where you already are.

Pricing

Banded by head count. Nothing else.

One price for the farm, not per user — the people who work your animals should all be able to write to the record. Billed annually, cancel at renewal, and your data leaves with you as a plain file if you go.

Talk about a licence

Head count is counted once a year, at renewal. Lambing does not push you into a higher band mid-season — we count breeding stock, not the peak. Veterinary practices and cooperatives that want to resell Raeeya to the farms they serve should get in touch; there is a reseller arrangement rather than a per-farm markup.

Where we actually are

Raeeya has not launched yet, and we are not going to print numbers we have not earned.

There are no customer logos on this page and no quotes from farmers, because there are no customers yet. What there is: a working offline record, a withdrawal flag we have designed carefully, and three measures we intend to publish once a founding cohort has a full season behind it.

Measure one

Head under record

Animals with an open, actively updated record — counted, not estimated. It is the only number that tells you whether the thing is being used in the pen or filled in on Sunday.

Measure two

Holds raised before sale

Every time a flag stopped an animal or its milk going into a sale window. We can count the flags we raised. We will report that honestly and will not dress it up as breaches prevented.

Measure three

Lambing percentage, season on season

The number every sheep farmer already tracks. If two seasons of records do not move it, or do not at least explain it, we have not built anything worth paying for.

Founding flocks

We are looking for a small number of working farms between 50 and 2,000 head to run Raeeya through a full breeding and lambing season. Founding farms pay nothing during the trial season, keep the price they start on, and get a direct line to the people building it. In exchange we want honest use and honest complaints — including the parts that do not work at the gate.

Vets and cooperatives

Veterinary practices serving rural herds and cooperatives running shared breeding programmes are how this reaches farms that will never read a software website. If you already have the trust, we would rather build the reseller arrangement with you than around you. Tell us how many farms you serve and what you would need from a record system.

Straight answers

The questions we get asked first.

Does Raeeya guarantee I stay compliant?

No, and we will not claim it. Raeeya records the withdrawal dates you enter, carries them forward as a visible hold, and reminds you before they clear. It does not read product labels for you, does not certify anything to a buyer or an inspector, and does not replace your veterinary surgeon's instructions. The judgement stays with you and your vet; what we remove is the excuse that nobody wrote it down.

What kind of ear tags does the scan work with?

Printed and visual tags via the phone camera, and typed entry for anything the camera cannot read — a muddy tag, a bad angle, a cracked screen. Typing the last four digits is always available and is often faster. Electronic (EID) tag readers that pair over Bluetooth are on the roadmap, not shipped; we would rather say that plainly than list it as a feature.

How offline is “offline”, really?

Completely. The flock lives on the handset. You can create animals, log treatments, record weights, search, filter and read full history with the phone in aeroplane mode, indefinitely. Nothing is read-only and nothing is greyed out. When a connection appears the queued entries upload in the background; if two people edited the same animal apart from each other, the entries are kept side by side with their timestamps rather than one silently overwriting the other.

I have five years of paper flock books. Can I bring them in?

Bring in what is useful. A spreadsheet or a CSV of animals, tags, birth dates and parentage imports directly. Loose paper is a judgement call — in most cases the honest advice is to enter your current breeding stock and start clean from this season, rather than spending a fortnight typing history that will never be queried. We will tell you which of the two you are in before you pay us anything.

Who owns the data?

You do. Your records are yours, exportable to a plain spreadsheet at any time, including on the day you cancel. We do not sell flock data, and a cooperative licence does not give the cooperative sight of anything beyond the animals it actually owns. If you leave, you take the file and we delete our copy on request.

Does it work for goats and small dairy, or only sheep?

Sheep, goats and small dairy herds. The vocabulary changes with the species you pick — lambing or kidding or calving, ewe or doe or cow — and mixed operations can run all of them under one flock. Cattle at scale is not what this is for; if you have 400 dairy cows there are systems built around parlour hardware that will serve you better, and we will say so.

What happens if I lose the phone in a water trough?

Anything already synced is safe and appears on the next handset you sign in on. Anything queued on that specific phone and never uploaded is gone — which is true of any offline-first tool and is why the sync pip states out loud how many entries are still waiting. In practice a phone finds signal at the yard or the house daily, so the exposure is hours rather than seasons.

Know the herd, animal by animal

Tell us about your flock and we will tell you honestly whether this helps.

How many head, what you keep, and what you currently do about withdrawal dates. If Raeeya is the wrong tool for your operation we would rather say so in the first email than in the second season.
