The ZooEasy software is suitable for keeping track of information about breeding for all guinea pig breeds. For example the White Crested, Silkie, Satin or the American. It doesn’t matter if you breed with or without official pedigrees. Everyone can use ZooEasy: from starting breeders to professional breeders and associations.
Our software is perfect for saving the records of all guinea pigs. Register their name, registration number, bloodline, date of birth and characteristics. Keep track of this information and later you can trace bloodlines unlimitedly. Make notes about the health, color, and character of each guinea pig. Also add a picture to complete your records. This completes the basic information that will help you to make responsible breeding choices. You can save data or print it on your personal pedigree.
Lowered inbreed percentage
Prevent inbreeding of your guinea pigs through accurate administration. ZooEasy gives you insight! When entering the details, select this guinea pig’s parents. Our software automatically calculates the inbreeding percentage of your animals. The more generations you enter, the more accurate the calculations are. And the lower the inbreeding percentage, the better this is for the guinea pigs health.
At ZooEasy we use the calculation method of Wright, supplied by the Wageningen University and Research Center (WUR). In 1921 the American genetic Sewall Wright came with the calculation that shows the likeliness that two individuals are related to each other. Essential when you work on a healthy and strong guinea pig breed!
Calculate the mean kinship of the guinea pigs
Mean kinship is the average relationship of an animal with the entire population. The mean kinship is a benchmark for how much an animal can contribute to the inbreeding in the future of the breed. Animals with a low mean kinship are genetically important and can be used for breeding. Animals with a higher mean kinship should be used less (or not at all) for breeding.
What makes the mean kinship so important?
The use of animals with a high mean kinship creates a possible risk of genetic defects and diseases within a breed. When you have enough animals with a low mean kinship available within the population in the future, you might be able to prevent occurrence of hereditary defects. See also this article.
