Adding a genetics product

A genetics product is a semen or embryo line you keep in stock. Adding one records its breeding details, how much you have, and what it costs — so it's ready to track and sell.

Open Genetics from the left-hand menu.

Steps

1. Select Add Genetics Product in the top-right corner.
2. Choose a Type — Semen or Embryo. This decides which breeding details the form asks for next.
3. Fill in the shared details:
   • Quantity (units) — how many units you have in stock. This one is required.
   • Extracted Date — when the product was collected. This one is required too.
   • Description, Price per Unit, Status, Tank Location and Grade (A+ down to 😎 — all optional, but worth filling in to keep your records complete.
4. Add the breeding details for the type you chose (see below).
5. Set any extra options you need — Ownership (Full or Partial, with an Ownership Note), Restrictions, and the Export Eligible toggle.
6. Select Create to save the product, or Cancel to discard it.

Adding a semen product — choose the sire and record your stock and extracted date.

For semen

When you choose Semen, the form asks for:

• Sire Details → Sire M.Number — pick the sire from your animals. This is required.
• Cane Code Batch — your batch reference.
• CSS Certified — a toggle for certified product.

For embryos

When you choose Embryo, the form records both parents:

• Sire Details → Sire M.Number — pick the sire from your animals.
• Dam Details → Dam M.Number — pick the dam from your animals. This is required.
• Embryo Type — DT, IVF or Conventional.
• Embryo Source — where the embryo came from.

Embryos record both a sire and a dam — the Dam M.Number field is required.

Pick a sire and dam you've already added

You choose the sire (and, for embryos, the dam) from your existing animals, so add those records first if they aren't in Frisbee yet — see Adding an animal.

Once you select Create, the product appears in your Genetics Products list, where you can edit it, set it In Sale, or mark it Sold.
