About Battle Pet BreedID
Battle Pet BreedID is a standalone addon that will display the Breed of any pet in the following situations:
- In Battle
- In your Pet Journal's scroll list
- In your Pet Journal's pet description tooltips
- In Item tooltips
- In Chat Link tooltips
- In the "Collected ..." line (with BattlePetCount installed)
Theorycrafting is up to you... but if you know what stats you value most, now you can find them! To learn how the Breed ID affects your pets, go here: http://wow.curseforge.com/addons/battle_pet_breedid/pages/what-is-the-breed-id/.
This addon uses the letter system by default (B/B for breed ID 3, etc), but if you want to switch to the number system used by other resources, just type "/breedid" or go to Interface->AddOns to open the Battle Pet BreedID options panel. You can change the format type at the top in the Dropdown box, along with over 20 other different options!
Please report addon conflicts (especially with tooltips) and other errors in the comments on Curse/CurseForge.

P.S. If you're experiencing a strange bug where Battle Pets are not showing Rarity colors in Pet Battles, try enabling "Use alternate rarity coloring method" in this Addon's options.
(v1.0.7a) * [DATA] Fixed base stats for one of the Beasts of Fable.
- [DATA] Patch 5.3.0 breed data should be complete.
- [FIX] One of the known cavets is fixed: "Odd behavior when mousing over a PetJournal pet icon with a chat link active (currently, only one breed tooltip can be active at once, so it hops between the two frames)." This has also solved a related issue with incorrect pet rarities/breeds on chat link tooltips in this situation.

Sorry :(
Unfortunately this is currently impossible. We -could- tell the gender for a few pets (if they have a breed only in one gender, for example) but it would only work for maybe 10% of pets, so it may just make things more confusing.
As soon as Blizzard adds some way to tell gender in-game, we will include it.
Cory "Mumper" Stockton, World of Warcraft's Lead Content Designer, said in a recent interview pet gender may determine stats, appearance or abilties in a near future.
So maybe is time to start thinking about coloring breedId in pink for my female pets XD....please, please.
Just joking jaja... a M (male) or a F (female) will be ok ......but pink pets will be soooo cute.
I have everything displaying great in my pet journal and item tooltips but for some reason it isn't showing during battles anymore (PvE or PvP) and I'm not sure why? It did before but I redid my UI so had to redownload everything so obviously I've mucked up somewhere. I've gone back through all the compatability options again but everything that is meant to be changed has been though I do remember that when I redownloaded the enhanced journal addon I only had to change one spot (could not find another) when the guide says in both places and I had to change two the first time I did all this. Help!
If you have installed any addon like "Battle Pet Glow", BreedID's will not show during comba.
You're very likely using an addon that is recoloring the names in Pet Battles (which is pointless after 5.1) and it sabotages our efforts to change the name in battle by adding the Breed ID.
Addons like PetBattleQualityGlow are completely unneeded in Patch 5.1 and should be removed.
Addons like PetBattleInfo (that have other useful features besides name coloring) can be modified to work. In specific for PetBattleInfo, you need to remove the last line of the file "PetBattleInfo.toc" (which says "PetBattleQuality.lua").
As for compatibility changes, the only one I make is above because Battle Pet Count is naturally compatible (and so is PJE now) so there is really no point to modify it further. I mean, it shows breeds in Journal and in Battle by default now, so unless another addon is breaking it, there really isn't any need to make changes.
Do you have any suggestions on how to make the tooltip portion compatible with various tooltip mods or mods that it is compatible with? I'm using TipTac and it does not show it.
I'll look into it
First of all, congratulations and thankyou Simca for your fantastic add-on, and for all the effort people like you, Hugh or Warla, have put figuring out what BreedId Are
Any chance to add color to your tooltip to identify the quality (rarity) of a pet ? Battle pet BreedID interferes with Blizzard new interface to see the quality (rarity) of a pet during combat, it also interferes with add-ons (maybe now obsolete) who used to identify the Quality of a oponent pet during combat like "Battle Pet Glow", making it imposible to guess the quality of the first oponent.
Also when browsing action House for caged pets, If petname is too long, Breeds are not seen, I know it's a Blizzard issue and you can't do so much about this, but how about putting breeds prior to the name,
For example: "(S/S) Black Tabby Cat" instead of "Black Tabby Cat (S/S)"
Keep creating such good work.
Edit: Just tested and It works Ok with PetTracker.
Hi and thanks.
For quality coloring, we should not interfere with Blizzard's method of quality coloring in any way at all. However, Battle Pet Glow, PetBattleQualityGlow, and PetBattle Info (well, for this one you can actually just delete PetBattleQuality.lua from its folder) are all completely incompatible with our addon now. Can you confirm if the problem still exists with those types of addons disabled? The color of the name of the first opponent should be the rarity with Blizzard's method.
As for your second suggestion, it is a good one. I'll look into it tomorrow, but I'd like to see if I could move Breed to the bottom line of the tooltip along with a list of all possible breeds.
Thanks to you.
I made a test with no add-ons at all, except yours.
With Battle Pet BreedID turned off. During combat Blizard UI colors frames of second and third pet, but for first pet it only show rarity as a golden text. I.e: "Jack (Uncomon)" no color text and no color frame.
With Battle Pet BreedID turned on. Second and third oponent pets remain with their frames colored, but text of first oponent is replaced from "Jack (Uncomon)" to "Jack (S/S)" since frame or text of first pet have no colors, is not possible to guess rarity of first pet.
Anyway, as a workaround installing PetTracker along with Battle Pet BreedID, I can have both, colored text and frames, and your Breeds together.
If you can add a list of all possible breeds, will be awesome.
I just uploaded v0.75c to Curse (it should be up in an hour or two after it gets approved).
See if this fixes the problem; I'm not 100% sure what is causing it, but I added some backups to the code in places in case things that should never occur... happen to occur anyway.
Very, very interesting. I think I found another Blizzard bug (events are misfiring).
Display of breed ID in my pet journal is working fine.
However, in pet battles, breed ID for all pets (including my own team) seems broken right now.
(I have not yet tested if that could be a compatibility issue with pet tracker, the only other pet addon i'm using - will check tonight if noone else has the same problem)
Could you be more specific? I've been playing all day myself, and experienced no problems, and I do use PetTracker as well
