Re: Fjord Pedigrees by Computer?
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Philip Petty) Gail, There are a number of 'boxed' horse management programs that have pedigrees. Just last week tossed a couple of them. Sorry I do not remember the names, but I found them in the back of Equis the horse mag. A gentleman in Montana has written a program for his Fjords that looks ok. He has Proud Bottom Ranch, check with him. Also I'm sure Mike would have some leads.

Gail, Hold on a bit longer. The NFHR is about to convert it's antiquated database system to a new professionally written database. This one is written especially for horse registries. One of the features of it is that after the conversion we may be able to offer the entire NFHR database on a CD Rom for use by breeders. I have no idea of the cost of it yet but will be finding out more very soon. By te way the new database will allow us to print a studbook and make them available for sale also.

This message is from: GAIL RUSSELL <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Does anyone know of a really good pedigree program that would allow Fjord owners to really accurately track the Fjord lines? Seems to me I heard that at least one of the stud books was going to be available in online - or other computer format. I would like to use the stud book information, plus other notes/comments from other sources and enter them all into a computer data base that might help people breed the Fjord they want. For example, I'd like to take Carol Rivoire's horses' pedigrees (Stine,Gjest) and chart their pedigrees, then look at progeny and make notes about their movement, conformation, etc. I'm not sure there is a pedigree database program that would do this (it could come from the dog/cattle/sheep areas too - does not have to be specific to horses)If all else fails my SO might build one as practice while learning a new database program for work.
