Software for
people who
breed animals
Breed Ledger holds your pedigrees, your waitlist, your deposits, and the records that have to outlive the laptop they were entered on. It is the only platform that links pedigrees across programs, and the only one that leaves the money with you: 0.5% when you opt into payments, against the 5 to 10% service fee a marketplace adds at checkout. Built by a breeder. For breeders.

Browse the directory by breed and location.
Every card below leads to a real breeder. Cards only surface for breeds and states with at least one active program on Breed Ledger today. That is also the reason to list your program early: each one that joins adds breed and location combinations the directory can answer buyer searches for, and those searches reach every listing, so an early listing compounds as the directory fills in around it. Buyers click through to your own site, not a marketplace. Breed Ledger does not broker the sale.

Quotes from programs who replaced their old stack with Breed Ledger. Each name links to the live site they run on this platform.

“Morph genetics actually work the way real reptile breeders think about them. Het-tracking and pairings, not free-text tags.”
The tools your program is using were built to sell t-shirts
Retail platforms treat your animals like inventory. They were not designed for lineage, genetics, or waitlists. Every workaround you have built is a tell.
01
On Shopify or WooCommerce
The reality
Animals become products. Litters become "variants." Pedigrees do not exist.
Your workaround
Custom metafields. Three paid plugins. A developer.
02
On Wix or Squarespace
The reality
Every animal page is rebuilt by hand. No linked lineage. No waitlist.
Your workaround
Embedded Google Forms. Spreadsheets. Manual updates.
03
On WordPress
The reality
You become the webmaster, the SEO consultant, and the plugin janitor.
Your workaround
Elementor and WPForms and Yoast and a custom post type and prayer.
The product
Your program, in your colors
Dashboard, animals, waitlist, inquiries, pedigrees. The software you work in every day, carrying your program's own colors and type instead of ours. Switch programs below to see the same screens under three brands.

1h ago1h ago6h ago18h ago18h ago2w agoEverything your program runs on. None of the plugin graveyard.
Every feature below is native. No integrations. No third-party add-ons. No 'pay for Pro to get waitlists.'
01
Animal management, natively.
Every animal is a first-class record. Status, price, weight log, photos, registration numbers, health tests. Update once. The change rolls through every page that references the animal.
No "products." Just animals.
02
Five-generation visual pedigrees.
Click any sire or dam to drill in. Dashed borders mark animals from partner programs. No drawing, no PDFs. The whole program reads as one connected tree.
Cross-breeder links included.
03
Litters, pairings, pups.
Plan a pairing. Log the whelp or hatch. Assign pups to waitlist holders. Deposits route to the right pup automatically. The litter lifecycle is one record from intent to placement.
One place. End to end.
04
Waitlists that earn the name.
Tied to animals, litters, or a morph combo. Buyers pick the pup they want. Deposits hold the spot. You see the whole queue with one click. Approve a buyer application and the waitlist entry writes itself, in position order.
See how applications and contracts workApplications feed the queue.
05
Species-aware genetics.
Het. Albino. Line-bred champions. Polygenic color. Sex-linked traits. Record what your species actually needs, not what a generic CMS allows.
Reptiles. Dogs. Cats. Livestock.
06
SEO-ready the moment you publish.
Every page ships with structured data, OG images, sitemaps, alt text, and fast-loading layouts. Already tuned for "[breed] breeder in [state]" searches.
No consultant. No plugin.
One platform. Three tiers.
Breeders keep their own site. Clubs keep their own members. Registries keep their own stud book. The animal records underneath are shared, so nobody re-types anything.
Archive litter

Pedigrees, weight curves, waitlists, deposits, applications, and contracts, all running off the animal records you already keep. A buyer's question about a 2024 litter is three clicks, not fifteen.

Your registry.
Stud books, parentage records, DNA verification links, and registration fees handled in one ledger. Members see one platform. The board sees one source of truth.
See the registry tierRun the whole registry from one place.
Your club's members, dues, animal registrations, events, and stud book should not live across a JotForm, a PayPal button, a spreadsheet, and one volunteer's laptop. Breed Ledger holds all of it under your club's own name and branding.
Membership renewals collect themselves. Animal registrations move through an approval queue instead of a group chat. Payouts land in the club's own bank account on the schedule the board sets. Your members see one portal; the board sees one source of truth.
Breed Ledger vs. the platforms breeders actually shop.

Move your program in minutes
Paste your current website, a program description, or a CSV of your animals. The AI import turns them into a full draft site you review before anything goes live. Prefer to take a weekend over it? The three-day path below still works.
Free white-glove migration
Would you rather hand it over? Send the site URL or an export file. Breed Ledger rebuilds the program in the platform and hands you the keys. No charge.
Friday night
Claim your program.
Pick a subdomain. Upload your animal list. CSV from Shopify, a spreadsheet, a photo roll. Breed Ledger handles all of them. Pedigrees link automatically from the records you already keep.
Saturday
Pick a template and go live.
Classic, Modern, or Minimal. Drop in colors, logo, hero photo. Write the about page. Point your domain. Publish.
Sunday
Open the waitlist.
The waitlist is live. Deposit links generate on demand. Your buyer application form is published at its own URL. Google starts indexing. By Monday morning, buyers are asking about specific pups by name.
A program on Breed Ledger competes for its own '[breed] breeder in [state]' searches from day one.
No consultant on retainer. No plugin stack to maintain. You publish an animal; the schema, the Open Graph image, the sitemap entry, and the directory listing all update themselves. What is below is how that happens, not what you have to configure.
- Breeder schema on every page (LocalBusiness, Product, BreadcrumbList)
- Auto-generated OG images for every animal and litter
- Species-specific keyword templates, reviewed by a breeder SEO
- Image optimization, lazy loading, and WebP conversion. All automatic.
- Built-in analytics. No Google Analytics setup required.

Active multi-species breeder.
010. A note from the founder.
I built Breed Ledger because the tool I needed didn't exist
I run animals. I also ship software. I have tried every platform a breeder is told to use. Shopify turns my animals into SKUs. Wix makes me rebuild every morph page by hand. WordPress turns me into the webmaster on top of the breeder.
None of them could draw a pedigree. None of them understood a waitlist. None of them ranked me in search without a paid consultant.
So I built the platform I wanted. And then I built it for dogs, cats, livestock, and birds too, because every breeder I know was stuck in the same broken stack.
