View Animals List

The Animals page displays the animals in your herd by IDClosed Identifier number, along with numerous other columns of information about each animal.

You can find this feature under the DairyComp/MyDC > Animals menu.

Follow the guidelines below when viewing your animals and their details: 

  • Click Filters to search for specific animals or to limit the animals shown by pen, lactation, or reproductive code (RCClosed Reproductive code).
  • To view a summary of an animal, click on its ID to open a side panel without leaving the page.

NOTE: Remember that you can also search for a specific animal at any time using the Search for an Animal field at the top of the screen. See Find an Animal for more information.

In the side panel, you can use the left and right arrow keys on your keyboard to step through side panels for the next/previous animals in the list. To close the side panel, click the X button in the top-right corner or press the Esc key.

Interactive column headers allow you to arrange the data into a way that's most useful to you. Depending on the features available for each column, you can add new columns of data, rearrange and reorder them, and filter some columns. To access these features, click on the column menu in the column you want to change.

The top menu can contain three different options—one for resizing the column, one for filtering the data displayed in the column, and one for controlling which columns are displayed. Each menu contains various ways for manipulating what's shown on the page.

Columns that contain numeric values can be filtered to show only certain data. For example, to filter the Lactation column so that only animals with a lactation value of 3 display, click the filter option, and then use the fields to create your filter.

You can reorder the way columns display by clicking in the header of the column you want to move and dragging it to its new location.

To add or remove columns from the page, click the columns option and then check or uncheck the boxes to select which columns to display.

You can also remove columns by clicking on the header of the column you want to remove, holding down the mouse key, and dragging the column up and out of the table.
