In this episode of the Poultry Nerds Podcast, we’re joined by Brie—agricultural engineering student, software developer, and creator of the Poultry Pro app—to explore how data, genetics, and technology are transforming modern poultry breeding.
Brie shares how her background in agricultural engineering and livestock systems led her from managing endless spreadsheets to building Poultry Pro, a powerful yet easy-to-use platform designed specifically for poultry keepers. Whether you raise backyard chickens, quail, or large breeding flocks, this episode breaks down how tracking the right information can save time, improve results, and increase profitability.
We cover how Poultry Pro helps poultry breeders:
- Track egg production, fertility, hatchability, and feed usage
- Manage individual birds, flocks, pedigrees, and genetic traits
- Monitor health checks and condition scores before problems arise
- Calculate cost per egg, cost per bird, and overall farm profitability
- Export financial data for Schedule F and farm records
- Benchmark performance against real breeder averages
We also discuss the challenges of building agricultural apps, why mobile apps matter for today’s breeders, and how data-driven decision-making leads to stronger, healthier birds.
If you want to stop guessing and start breeding with confidence, this episode is packed with practical insight and real-world poultry knowledge you can apply immediately.

00:25:06.089 --> 00:25:06.420 Yeah. 00:25:06.480 --> 00:25:09.809 So probably should start with why I created the app. 00:25:10.019 --> 00:25:10.200 Okay. 00:25:10.204 --> 00:25:10.285 There. 00:25:11.130 --> 00:25:18.309 For anyone that does like chicken things in general and likes to keep track of their information or their data that was me. 00:25:18.609 --> 00:25:27.000 I kept track of like egg, like how many eggs birds would lay feed as I got into more on the quail side and then on things like that. 00:25:27.059 --> 00:25:30.000 I kept track of feed cap, track of weights and things like that. 00:25:30.000 --> 00:25:35.480 I always had IDs for my birds, names for them and like when I'd get them, when I'd sell them. 00:25:35.900 --> 00:25:46.490 And at one point when I came to Man Valley Farm, I think I had it was somewhere like 10 spreadsheets with all of this information. 00:25:46.880 --> 00:25:49.009 And it was a lot and it was a pain. 00:25:49.370 --> 00:25:53.450 And we were redoing the UW fs poultry barn set up. 00:25:53.480 --> 00:25:59.809 And I tried introducing my boss to these 10 spreadsheets and he looked me dead in the eyes and he is Brianna. 00:26:00.424 --> 00:26:02.434 You can program, what are you doing here? 00:26:03.484 --> 00:26:04.234 Can we not? 00:26:06.095 --> 00:26:11.075 And yeah, so I made it into an app and it basically. 00:26:11.765 --> 00:26:13.835 I took everything that UWRF wanted. 00:26:13.894 --> 00:26:18.065 I took everything that I thought was important and things that I used in my research trials. 00:26:18.065 --> 00:26:22.355 Things like a things like eggs that I'm getting out, feed consumption. 00:26:22.355 --> 00:26:24.914 It'll tell you your, like your water ratios. 00:26:24.914 --> 00:26:29.204 It'll flag it if things are if all of a sudden your birds go from laying. 00:26:30.009 --> 00:26:34.930 30 eggs a day to 20 eggs a day, you get a health check on there. 00:26:35.000 --> 00:26:39.819 You can do health checks, which is a big thing that I think a lot of poultry breeders don't do. 00:26:39.890 --> 00:26:44.460 Things like condition scores which is huge in animals like cattle and pigs. 00:26:44.460 --> 00:26:50.490 But I never hear about condition scores and poultry until I started working with the humane handling. 00:26:51.029 --> 00:26:55.440 Institute that we have at River Falls and just little things like that. 00:26:55.500 --> 00:26:58.799 And I had, obviously I'd seen other software before. 00:26:58.799 --> 00:27:03.900 We've used other software for different animals and all of it seems really clunky, right? 00:27:03.900 --> 00:27:08.984 I used the flock star for a little bit and it just. 00:27:09.569 --> 00:27:16.529 It was hard one because it didn't have all the information I wanted to have, and two, because it wasn't very user friendly. 00:27:16.710 --> 00:27:21.599 So I made the app to be as simple and as easy as possible. 00:27:21.599 --> 00:27:28.349 We've got 15 different file markers that all can use it pretty much like without any training. 00:27:28.660 --> 00:27:29.319 You just log in. 00:27:29.724 --> 00:27:36.714 If there's big buttons at the top that say you log your eggs, log your feed, you put your flocks and your birds in, and you get your reports out. 00:27:37.285 --> 00:27:39.025 And then since then it's grown. 00:27:40.444 --> 00:27:44.855 I built the poultry index so breeders can upload their stats on there. 00:27:45.285 --> 00:27:47.174 And you can choose whether to opt in or opt out. 00:27:47.174 --> 00:27:53.265 And if you opt out, obviously it's your data, so we never have control over it. 00:27:53.265 --> 00:27:57.495 Like at any point you can say, I want out of the program, and all of your data's removed from it. 00:27:58.015 --> 00:28:00.384 But you can benchmark it against the average. 00:28:00.444 --> 00:28:03.115 So the goal is eventually we'll have enough readers in it. 00:28:03.710 --> 00:28:08.299 And you can display your name, or you don't have to, but it says this is what the average is. 00:28:08.420 --> 00:28:13.099 So for Terex, I think we had about a thousand some birds in there. 00:28:13.099 --> 00:28:14.240 We had a growth pattern. 00:28:14.789 --> 00:28:18.180 And you can see where your birds were sitting on relative to that growth pattern. 00:28:18.180 --> 00:28:29.579 In your age, you could see like your egg production, whether it was higher or lower, your fertility, your hatch ability and all of like your metrics, you can compare against the average from. 00:28:30.269 --> 00:28:36.740 Actual breeders, not just big name hatcheries that that are keeping everything under very tight conditions. 00:28:36.740 --> 00:28:43.370 You could see it what it's like from people that have anywhere from five birds to, to 5,000 and in between. 00:28:43.970 --> 00:28:47.140 So that's been where it's gone and where it's still going. 00:28:47.140 --> 00:28:52.900 We're still getting more breeders into the index and more breeders using Poultry Pro just about on the daily. 00:28:54.220 --> 00:28:57.490 Can you put in like a family tree type thing for the birds? 00:28:57.490 --> 00:28:59.079 Yeah, absolutely. 00:28:59.140 --> 00:29:15.970 So when you go in and you add your birds, you can add birds like one at a time, or if you've got like a hundred birds or you just hatch out a batch of them, you can batch entry a whole bunch of them and you can choose the dam and the sire if you have them on your farm, and it'll actually populate the whole spreadsheet for you. 00:29:15.970 --> 00:29:17.829 It'll tell you, it'll show you a pedigree. 00:29:18.099 --> 00:29:19.509 You can put in genetic traits. 00:29:19.509 --> 00:29:21.549 Genetic traits will show up on that pedigree. 00:29:21.819 --> 00:29:23.620 It'll tell you inbreeding coefficients. 00:29:23.620 --> 00:29:38.630 If you're someone who does a lot of line breeding or sibling matches, or father's son or spiral breeding you can figure out how inbred your birds are, and then you can see whether that's impacting your fertility or your different gene traits when you go down and you can plug genes into there too. 00:29:39.904 --> 00:29:50.825 So I can see where like somebody like me that's getting pretty tight, like on the Orpingtons, but if somebody was just getting started with Burge, why would all of this stuff be important? 00:29:51.454 --> 00:30:06.434 Personally, I think that doing this in the beginning would be, it may not be important to the person at that time, but if they ever plan on breeding, it will save them hours and hours. 00:30:07.694 --> 00:30:20.775 Sorting through notepads from the barn, notes on their phone, text messages that they sent somebody, like sorting through all that junk. 00:30:21.269 --> 00:30:30.539 They would already have it in here because like you can do family and then individual bird, or no, they, it is called a flock. 00:30:30.539 --> 00:30:33.809 You can establish a flock, add birds to it. 00:30:34.275 --> 00:30:37.934 Put in all their ID number, all that crap, even their name. 00:30:39.075 --> 00:30:41.684 And then it, it keeps up with everything for you. 00:30:43.005 --> 00:30:53.390 Yeah, I would say it's almost idiot proof, but being an educator myself, I know that's a stretch. 00:30:55.664 --> 00:30:57.644 I sent it to some of my cousins. 00:30:57.644 --> 00:31:08.515 One of my cousins, he is he was like 13 I think when I sent it to him, and he was able to figure it out and keeps track of his birds on it religiously. 00:31:08.545 --> 00:31:11.335 So he grew up on computers. 00:31:11.341 --> 00:31:12.920 He need to send it to people like me. 00:31:15.055 --> 00:31:17.845 I'll say the very first person I sent it to was you guys. 00:31:17.845 --> 00:31:21.805 So I am in it right now. 00:31:23.984 --> 00:31:30.674 And if my boss can use it, who hates computers with an absolute passion I think just about everyone can use it. 00:31:32.115 --> 00:31:32.414 Yeah. 00:31:32.974 --> 00:31:42.484 I do have 400 birds in it, I will say, but I was still in the transferring the information from voice memos to it. 00:31:42.904 --> 00:31:49.835 That was gonna be my winter project, and then I could move forward for spring breeding is what I was gonna use it for. 00:31:50.785 --> 00:31:52.615 Yeah, I don't count eggs. 00:31:52.855 --> 00:32:00.204 I don't care how many I get because there's counting eggs and then there's counting like usable eggs. 00:32:00.295 --> 00:32:02.545 So yeah, I don't know. 00:32:02.995 --> 00:32:04.015 It didn't matter to me. 00:32:04.194 --> 00:32:07.164 Will it figure out like if you're making money or not? 00:32:07.759 --> 00:32:08.029 Yep. 00:32:08.150 --> 00:32:10.490 There's a whole finances section on there. 00:32:10.789 --> 00:32:17.200 It'll not only won it tell you, your price per egg, price per bird price to raise out your bird. 00:32:17.450 --> 00:32:20.630 It'll tell you where you're spending the most money in there. 00:32:20.950 --> 00:32:23.769 And then it'll also tell you where you're bringing in the most money. 00:32:23.920 --> 00:32:27.039 So any, there's super easy buttons on there. 00:32:27.370 --> 00:32:29.974 Anytime you buy something, you can. 00:32:30.745 --> 00:32:33.755 Upload it on there and fill out your expenses. 00:32:33.815 --> 00:32:52.045 And same thing when you sell something you can put in your customer if you want, or you can just say, this is what I sold and this is how much question, how much does it go into helping you say with filing a, like getting all the data together for a Schedule F. 00:32:53.904 --> 00:32:55.015 A schedule F. 00:32:55.795 --> 00:32:56.035 Okay. 00:32:56.035 --> 00:32:57.505 So if you have a farm. 00:32:58.615 --> 00:33:02.724 You track all your finances and you fill out a Schedule F oh. 00:33:03.595 --> 00:33:11.394 For the IRS, there's a option on there that to export everything, so you can go back and you can export it. 00:33:11.454 --> 00:33:21.684 I think I'm still working on a spreadsheet, but it will give you a PDF of it and it'll give you your summary and you can choose nice, whether you want week, month, year on there. 00:33:21.684 --> 00:33:25.914 And then you can also choose like for a specific flock for your whole farm. 00:33:25.974 --> 00:33:30.535 You can export all of that and it'll give you the nice, you can print it, you can save it. 00:33:31.704 --> 00:33:56.039 See, I like the fact that, you can have chickens for free eggs or cheap eggs because they're like$14 a dozen and you tell that story to your spouse and I'm not going to condone being dishonest, but you tell that story to your spouse. 00:33:57.410 --> 00:33:59.269 And they don't see the feed bill. 00:34:00.680 --> 00:34:03.170 So yeah. 00:34:03.170 --> 00:34:14.400 But you can actually log in and look at the finances section and decide whether you're gonna really enjoy that egg sandwich or you're gonna sell that egg. 00:34:16.470 --> 00:34:22.035 And the biggest one for me was plugged in the numbers and it told me the price per egg. 00:34:22.394 --> 00:34:29.325 And there was a point where I was over a dollar an egg for just what I was bringing in a month. 00:34:29.325 --> 00:34:34.605 And it's okay, how many places can I go where I can sell eating eggs for over a dollar an egg? 00:34:34.755 --> 00:34:36.765 And the answer's not many Publix. 00:34:37.680 --> 00:34:41.490 Yeah, we don't have those near us. 00:34:42.420 --> 00:34:42.780 Really. 00:34:44.760 --> 00:34:45.840 We have quick trips. 00:34:47.400 --> 00:34:47.519 Quick. 00:34:47.519 --> 00:34:48.974 I like the qt. 00:34:49.500 --> 00:34:54.420 If you ever get Publix, you need to go to Publix because you can just go in there and everybody's nice to you. 00:34:55.349 --> 00:34:56.219 That's the quick trip. 00:34:56.219 --> 00:34:56.734 That is true. 00:34:57.674 --> 00:34:58.054 Oh, is it?
