# Move a Herd

> Put a herd on a field or house it. The manure plan and the field's record follow.

<Steps>
  <Step title="More, then Livestock">
    The Livestock page lists the farm's herds with where each one is and since when. A farm with none starts with **Add a herd**: the type from the categories the nitrate rules use, the name and the head.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Move on the herd's row">
    **Move** on a herd's row lists the fields and **Housed**. Pick one. The move is dated now; a note is optional.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Or from the + sheet">
    The + sheet's **Herd move** kind does the same from any tab, with the field chips.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What You See Next

The herd's row says the field and the days since. The field's row on the Map says the herd and since when, and the Map's herd layer draws it at the field's centre. The move is a row on Records. The manure plan's loading, storage and where-it-can-go sections recompute from the herds and their days on the holding: see [Livestock and the Manure Plan](/features/farm-management/livestock-and-manure-plan).

## If It Does Not

| You see                        | It means                          | Do                                     |
| ------------------------------ | --------------------------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| No Move on the row             | The herd has no head count        | Edit the herd and give it one          |
| The field is not in the list   | It is not on the map              | Draw it first                          |
| The manure plan did not change | The move is queued with no signal | It sends when the phone is back online |
