You fell in love with those teddy bear faces, that incredible wool, and the joy of raising something truly special. But the recordkeeping? It matters more than you think.
Shearing dates in one notebook, vet records in another, breeding info on a sticky note somewhere...
Most livestock tools were built for commercial operations running thousands of head. Way too complex for specialty flocks.
You're spending time digging through records instead of being in the barn with your flock where you belong.
Silver Fleece came out of my own frustration. I started Wool & Wonder Farm with a small group of carefully selected Valais Blacknose breeding stock, and from day one I was drowning in details.
Shearing dates. Hoof trim schedules. FAMACHA scores. Vet visits. Breeding records. Sales. Nothing on the market fit.
Everything was either too bloated for a small specialty flock or too basic to capture the information that actually matters for Valais Blacknose sheep.
So I built the tool I wished existed — and now I'm sharing it with you, completely free.
Six core tracking areas designed for the way small breeders actually work.
Log every shearing date, fleece weight, and quality notes. Build a clear production picture for each animal over time.
See at a glance who's due next. Never let a trim slip through the cracks when managing multiple schedules.
Track parasite resistance across your flock over time. Spot trends early and make smarter breeding decisions.
Every visit, treatment, and vaccination — tied to the individual animal. No more flipping through paper files.
Clean records of pairings, dates, and outcomes. Share lineage info with buyers or plan your next season with confidence.
Track what's sold, when, and to whom. Keep the business side organized without a separate system.
Clean, simple screens designed for breeders — not software engineers.
Designed with Valais Blacknose breeders in mind — but perfect for any small specialty flock.
Built specifically with VBN recordkeeping needs in mind — from wool production tracking to lineage documentation.
Running Valais crosses or another specialty breed? Silver Fleece works beautifully for any small, carefully managed flock.
Still learning the rhythms of flock care? Silver Fleece is simple enough to start using in minutes.
Been tracking on paper for years and ready for something better? This is your upgrade — without the learning curve.
The Valais Blacknose community deserves better tools, and gatekeeping isn't my style. Every breeder I talked to had the same mess of notebooks and half-filled spreadsheets. A tool that helps you raise healthier sheep benefits all of us — the breeders, the breed, and the animals.
You invest serious time, money, and heart into your animals. Your recordkeeping should reflect that. Spend less time buried in paperwork and more time doing what you actually love.
