The Steading Codex · Command Sheets
The calendar that knows when the nest box goes in.
Gestation and incubation due dates, task windows, and survival per dam.
Google Sheets + Excel · yours forever · printable pack included
Without it
You wrote the breeding date somewhere, then spend the next month counting on your fingers and hoping you didn't miss the nest-box day.
With the radar
Log the mating or the egg set; the due date appears with the task windows before it, and the sheet keeps each dam's survival rate.
The radar — what it works out for you

How it works
Make your copy
One click drops a private copy into your own Google Drive — yours to keep and edit.
Type what you have
You only ever fill the white cells. Everything grey fills itself.
Read the dashboard
The money and the radar are already there. You read it; you don't build it.
You will never touch a formula.
What's inside
The Kindling & Hatch Calendar
Works in Google Sheets & Excel — nothing to install.
It pairs with the book
The sheet counts the days. The journals raise what arrives.
Questions
Is it a subscription?
No — one payment, and it's yours forever. You get your own private copy in your own Google Drive; nothing recurring, nothing to renew.
Do I need to know Excel or spreadsheets?
No. You type in the white cells — name, quantity, a date — and the dashboard fills itself. There are no formulas to touch, ever.
Google Sheets or Excel?
Both. It's built for free Google Sheets (recommended — it works on iPad, phone, or computer) and it opens in Excel too.
Can I print it?
Yes — a printable pack (PDF) is included with every purchase. Print any sheet at home, as many times as you like.
What's your refund policy?
Digital editions are final sale once the copy has been accessed. If a file is faulty or you were charged in error, email us within 14 days and we'll make it right.
