A Smarter Pedigree -- Inbreeding Check, Siblings & Certificates
The pedigree view has been rebuilt for clarity, and breeding planning gets serious help: an automatic inbreeding check when you pair a dam and sire, progeny-performance figures, full and half siblings, an ancestry-completeness indicator, and a downloadable pedigree certificate.

This update makes the pedigree far more useful for real breeding decisions -- from a clearer family tree to an automatic inbreeding warning before you record a mating.
A Clearer Family Tree
The pedigree view has been rebuilt as a proper genealogy chart.
- Maternal and paternal lines are now unambiguous -- each parent's own parents branch directly off it, with visible connector lines.
- Sex markers (♀ / ♂) on every card, so colour is no longer the only cue.
- Every ancestor and descendant is clickable to jump straight to its own pedigree, and the tree scrolls cleanly on the phone.
- Parents on the animal's Details tab (Location & lineage) are now clickable links too.
Automatic Inbreeding Check
When you choose a dam and a sire in the mating form, Herdy now shows an inbreeding check before you save.
- Predicted inbreeding coefficient (COI) of the offspring, graded from green ("unrelated") to red ("close relatives").
- The shared ancestors driving the result are listed, so you can see why a pairing is risky.
- Purely advisory -- you can still record the mating; it simply helps you avoid unintended close matings.
Progeny Performance
A breeding animal's Breeding tab now summarises how its offspring have performed:
- Progeny count and number of birth events
- Average litter size and live-birth rate
- Average birth weight of the offspring
- Birth-ease breakdown, and -- for dams -- the average mothering score
Siblings & Ancestry Completeness
The pedigree page now also shows:
- Full siblings (same dam and sire) and half siblings (one shared parent), each as a clickable card.
- An ancestry-completeness indicator in the header, so you can see at a glance how much of the family tree is known and where to fill gaps.
Downloadable Pedigree Certificate
- A "Download certificate" button generates a printable pedigree certificate (PDF) with the animal's identity, its inbreeding coefficient, and its ancestors by generation -- ideal for breeding organisations or when selling breeding stock.
Behind the Scenes
- Herdy now prevents impossible parentage -- an animal can no longer be recorded as its own ancestor, keeping the pedigree and the new inbreeding maths reliable.
