Say it once. It’s on her record.

Before the next drug, check it against Maple’s record: what she already had, how much, and when.

What the record is good for.

The examples below are Bella, a Nubian doe in the demo herd.

01 · Records

Every animal keeps its own record.

What you tell Ellie is filed under the animal: observations, weights, FAMACHA and body condition scores, and every treatment. Next season you won’t be guessing when Bella was last dewormed.

02 · Doses

Doses come from a fixed table.

The dose calculator is a fixed reference table for goats and sheep. Enter a weight, pick the medication, and get the dose, route, and meat and milk withdrawal times to confirm with your vet and the label. It keeps working offline once you’ve opened it.

For reference only. Many of these medications are used extra-label in small ruminants. Always confirm dose, route, and withdrawal times with a licensed veterinarian and the product label.

03 · Vet handoff

Your vet gets the whole story.

Ask for a vet report and Ellie turns your records into a printable summary, with a share link that works for 7 days. Your vet can read it before the visit and add their own notes.

04 · When one looks off

Ellie asks what to check, then files the answers.

Say what you see, in your own words. Ellie asks the follow-up questions that matter, like FAMACHA score, body condition, appetite and energy, puts the answers on the animal’s record, and tells you how urgent it looks and when to call your vet.

Bella has pale eyelids

Pale eyelids noted for Bella. Quick questions:

  • FAMACHA score (1-5)?
  • Body condition (thin/normal/heavy)?
  • Eating and drinking?
  • Energy level?
FAMACHA is 4, she’s a bit thin, eating ok but seems tired

Bella - updated:

  • FAMACHA: 4 (pale)
  • Body condition: Thin
  • Appetite: Normal
  • Energy: Low

Status: Urgent - FAMACHA 4 with low energy suggests significant parasite load.

Ellie records and triages. Your vet advises.

Knowing where Ellie stops is part of trusting it.

Ellie doesn’t diagnose.

Ellie tells you what to check and how urgent it looks. Naming the disease is your vet’s job.

Ellie doesn’t prescribe.

Ellie never tells you to give a drug. Dose and withdrawal numbers come from a reference table, for you and your vet to confirm against the label.

Ellie doesn’t replace your vet.

When the signs say call the vet, Ellie says so, and sends you there with a record your vet can use.
