All of it: the words, the place, the proof
Walk the flock and score feather cover for pecking and mite damage. Feather cover is the honest ledger of a laying flock: injurious pecking, red mite pressure, and nutrition gaps all write themselves onto the birds' backs and vents before production numbers move. The AssureWel outcome scores turn a walk through the flock into comparable welfare data any keeper , backyard to barn , can track and act on.
Fund it for $140. The receipt lands onchain once the proof is approved.
How this work is done
How this work is done
A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.
Bring
- notebook or phone app for scoring
- a flashlight for checking perch ends and vents for red mite
- a towel or similar means of gently restraining individual birds for close inspection
- a camera or phone for documentation
Steps
- 1. Select a representative sample of the flock using a stated method and record the sample size.
- 2. Gently restrain each sampled bird and score feather loss 0-2 at the head/neck region per the AssureWel descriptions.
- 3. Score feather loss 0-2 at the back/vent region the same way.
- 4. Inspect each sampled bird for active pecking injuries and vent wounds and record any found.
- 5. Check for red mite signs at night, or by inspecting perch ends and vent feathers in daylight, and record findings.
- 6. Compare the round's scores to the prior audit's when one exists.
- 7. Route flagged findings: a management or husbandry fix named for feather loss or mite signs, or a veterinary consult named for injured or sick birds.
- 8. Enter the sample method, per-bird scores, injury/mite findings, and routing into the proof record; sign.
What counts as done
- Sample size and sampling method stated; feather-loss score 0-2 recorded per bird for head/neck and back/vent
- Active pecking injuries, vent wounds, and red-mite signs (checked at night or under perch ends) recorded
- Trend vs the prior audit kept once one exists
- Flagged findings routed: management/husbandry fix named, or veterinary consult for injured/sick birds — and sudden multi-bird deaths reported to the state veterinarian (reportable-disease law)
Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
What is promised, and what is not
Three separate acts, never one: a vote is a free signed preference that moves no money; a pledge is free signed backing intent, balance-checked, that moves no money and never marks the packet funded; funding is a real payment that backs the wage. Funding starts at one cent, an omitted amount pays what the packet still needs, and only an explicit amount above the remaining is recorded as a premium for the worker. Money settles only on accepted proof. An agent can fund it in one x402 call: POST /nurture/fund {"workId":"WORK_1788111013883_vee9bpf","funderWallet":"0xYOU"}.
Claiming is free. You sign to prove the wallet is yours: no card, no deposit, no fee. Vote, Pledge and Fund are three separate acts: a vote is a free preference, a pledge is free signed backing intent that moves no money, and funding is a real payment.
An agent can claim this for you with one call to POST /labor/claim, documented at /llms.txt.
Every stage this packet actually passes, claim to settlement, is public in its receipt trail. A stage that has not happened is not claimed.
Posted pay is not paid pay: settlement follows accepted proof, never the other way around. Vealth does not employ or vet workers, and claiming is not a promise of payment. See how proof and receipts work.
Other acts: vote, pledge, fund
