On-site with the flock / national (broiler and backyard meat-bird flocks)

Broiler/meat-bird gait score (Bristol 0-5 scale) — flock / national.

A person watches each sampled bird walk across flat ground beside the coop at the site, writing its zero to five Bristol gait score on a tally sheet. Read all of it

All of it: the words, the place, the proof

Score every sampled bird's gait on the Bristol 0-to-5 scale. Fast-growing broiler strains commonly carry lameness rates keepers never measure: published surveys using the Bristol gait-scoring scale found 14-50% of conventional broiler flocks scoring 3-5 (impaired-to-unable-to-walk) at market age (Kestin et al. 1992), and lame birds have been shown to self-select an analgesic over plain feed , meaning gait score is a pain signal, not a cosmetic one (Danbury et al. 2000). A five-minute walk-and-score turns 'the birds look fine' into a number a keeper can act on before suffering compounds.

Fund it for $140. The receipt lands onchain once the proof is approved.

This job is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price, not money held for the worker. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash: recorded, and readable any time at vealth.net/labor/credit/(your wallet). You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof
sample size plus method stated + every sampled bird scored 0-5 on the Bristol scale + contact-dermatitis welfare signs noted alongside gait score + flock distribution plus share scoring 3-plus recorded + compared to the prior round when one exists + any bird scoring 4-5 or in pain routed

This is exactly what gets it approved. Nothing settles without it.

How this work is done

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.

Bring

  • stopwatch or phone timer
  • notebook or scoring sheet/app
  • a clear, flat, dry lane for the bird to walk
  • camera or phone for documentation
  • hand sanitizer or footbath for biosecurity between houses

Steps

  1. 1. Select a representative sample of birds from the flock using a stated method (for example, every Nth bird encountered along a walked transect) and record the sample size.
  2. 2. Encourage each sampled bird individually to walk a short, unobstructed, flat, dry lane of about 3-5 meters, without chasing or handling it roughly.
  3. 3. Score each bird's gait 0-5 on the Bristol scale, from 0 (normal, agile) through 5 (unable to walk or stand), recording the score against the bird's pen or row location.
  4. 4. Inspect each sampled bird's hocks and footpads for contact-dermatitis signs (hock burn, footpad lesions, breast blisters) and record alongside its gait score.
  5. 5. Tally the flock-level score distribution and the share scoring 3 or higher, and compare it to the prior round's distribution when one exists.
  6. 6. Separate and route any bird scoring 4 or 5, or showing pain or isolation behavior, per the decision rules.
  7. 7. Enter the sample method, per-bird scores, dermatitis findings, and flock distribution into the proof record; sign.

What counts as done

  • Sample size and sampling method stated; every sampled bird scored individually 0-5 on the Bristol scale
  • Contact-dermatitis welfare signs (hock burn, breast blister, footpad dermatitis) recorded alongside gait score
  • Flock-level score distribution and the share scoring 3 or above recorded, compared against the prior round when one exists
  • Any bird scoring 4-5, or showing pain/isolation behavior, routed to a veterinarian or humane on-farm euthanasia per the decision rules

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_1788120016289_1qaq93n","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
