Keep calf identity, birth date, mother relationship and health history on an individual animal card.
The calf’s own record follows it beyond the birth event. A reliable identity makes later health, weight and lifecycle records easier to connect.
What can you record in Tarliva?
- Ear tag, name, species, breed and sex
- Date of birth

How do you track this in Tarliva?
- Record the birth event against the mother.
- Create an individual calf record and enter its identity and birth date.
- Link the known mother and check the animal card.
- Add subsequent health, vaccination and weight records to the calf’s own history.
What should I do if parentage is unknown?
Leave unverified relationships unset until confirmed. Do not infer a registered parent from a note or bull code alone.
Keep related records connected
Link heat, insemination, pregnancy checks, dry-off, births and calves to the correct animal. Review health and vaccination history on the same card. Keep planned dates separate from completed procedures and check the saved animal and dates.
