Why did I get a weight alert?
Sudden drops can mean illness, so Falconry Scale flags them straight away.

A weight alert fires when a reading drops sharply from the previous one (7% by default). Sudden drops below the flying weight window can mean illness, so we flag them straight away.
What to do
- Check the bird for signs of illness or injury before the next flight.
- Check the reading itself: a wrong digit is the most common cause. You can delete a wrong weigh-in and log it again.
- If the drop can't be explained, contact your vet.
You can change alert settings per bird.
