Use one LivestockLogix account for buyer and seller tools.

Set up your account and buyer name
Keep contact, display-name, privacy, and cookie choices current.

Ask LivestockLogix for help
Create a private support case and follow the reply in one place.

- Select Create Support Case, choose the closest request type, and write a short subject that identifies the problem.
- Describe what happened, what you expected, and the page where it occurred. Attach a focused screenshot only when it helps explain the issue.
- Submit once, keep the CASE number shown in the confirmation, and return to that case thread for support replies or follow-up information.

- Choose Semen, Embryos, or Live Cattle; the outlined tab confirms which listing type you are viewing.
- Use the filters and sort control for that listing type to bring the most useful options to the top.
- Open a listing for details, choose More from Seller to browse that seller’s inventory, or select Remove when you no longer want the listing in Favorites.
Follow a seller and browse all inventory
One seller page can include active semen, embryo, and live-cattle offerings.
- Select More from Seller on any marketplace listing to open that seller’s complete active inventory.
- Use Listing category to show all listings or just semen, embryos, or live cattle, then choose the sort order you prefer.

Selling
Present and manage your inventory
Build your seller profile
Set the public identity and contact preferences buyers see.
- Open Seller Workspace; Seller Profile opens by default. Wait for the profile form to finish loading before making changes.
- Enter the ranch or business name and location buyers should see. Optionally add a logo, adjust its zoom and position, and review the crop before saving.
- Choose the preferred contact method and make sure the associated phone or email information is accurate.
- Leave seller inventory sharing enabled when buyers should browse and follow all active listings, then select Save Seller Profile and wait for confirmation.
Add and manage semen listings
Create one listing or use the bulk sheet, then manage it from your inventory cards.
- Open Semen Listings, then choose Add Semen Listing. For one offering, start typing the bull name or registration and select the matching complete bull record if it appears.
- Enter the semen type, pricing choice, available units, minimum purchase, fulfillment, and exact storage location that buyers need.
- Add listing-specific photos and a short Photo Note when helpful. Photos remain controlled from the completed bull record and are approved by an administrator.
- Submit for review, or use the bulk template for multiple rows. Choose the Semen Listings tab to review status and animal identity, update details and photos, or edit an offering. Rejection feedback is marked in red.
Add and manage embryo listings
Match sire and dam records, add mating details, and follow review status.
- Open Embryo Listings, choose Add Embryo Listing, and start with the sire and dam. Select the matching completed record when one exists; otherwise enter the requested identity details carefully.
- Choose embryo type and enter quantity, price, storage location, fulfillment, and any concise comments buyers need.
- Submit for review, then choose the Embryo Listings tab to monitor approval, read red rejection feedback, or edit the offering. Use Availability beside the name to mark it sold or reactivate an eligible listing.
Build a live-cattle listing
Use the category-specific form and provide the facts buyers need.
- Open Live Cattle Listings, choose Add Live Cattle Listing, then choose the animal category and complete every field that applies. Leave unavailable or irrelevant fields blank.
- Match the sire and dam to completed records when available, then verify birthdate, tattoo, actual weights, and category-specific breeding information.
- Add all useful animal photos, choose the primary photo for search cards, add accurate photo notes, and clearly explain delivery or pickup.
- Submit for review, then choose the Live Cattle Listings tab. Use Edit / View on the listing card for later changes. The currently approved version stays visible while an edited version is pending.
Use your Listing Credit Bank
Buy credits together, cover active listings, and choose whether to refill automatically.
- Open Seller Workspace → Billing. The small bubble at the top right shows your available credits. Your credit bank is shared across semen, embryo, and live-cattle listings. One credit covers one listing for a full calendar month; activating mid-month uses only the fraction needed for the days remaining.
- Select Buy Credits and choose enough for the listings you plan to activate. Buying several together reduces separate purchases and receipts. Your seller-specific price is shown before payment; unused purchased credits stay in your bank and do not expire.
- For automatic purchases, choose a monthly refill quantity in Billing and save it. A new setting starts next month. Refills add that many credits at the start of each calendar month; buy one-time credits for listings you want active now.
- Mark a listing Inactive or Sold when it no longer needs coverage. Eligible unused coverage is returned as a fraction of a credit. Complimentary credits cannot be returned as usable credits after the end of November 12, 2026 (Central).
- Before renewal, check your balance and active listing count. Set renewal priorities in Billing to keep the listings most important to you covered first. If there are not enough credits after the renewal grace period, uncovered listings become inactive; buy credits and reactivate the ones you want.
Use Seller Insights
See which listings attract attention and where buyer interest is strongest.
- Open Seller Insights and wait for the dashboard to finish loading your listing activity.
- Choose semen, embryo, live cattle, or the combined view, then select the time period that matches the decision you are making.
- Compare meaningful attention signals such as search appearances, listing views, favorites, and buyer contacts. A search appearance is counted when an active listing is visibly shown in a buyer’s results.
