      "promptBrief": "Weigh powders, then mix evenly. Grams of supplement and grams of food are different quantities. Start with the exact product’s food-mixing instructions. Scenes: Weigh: Tare the weighing boat. Weigh the supplement and the food separately with suitable scales; a household spoon is not a reliable gram measure.; Mix: Spread the measured powder evenly through the stated amount of food. A rate per kilogram of food is not a dose per bird.; Serve: Offer a fresh portion and record the product, quantity and preparation time. Follow the label’s storage and replacement instructions.",

      "promptBrief": "Measure liquid before adding water. Use this workflow only for a product whose matching label permits drinking-water use. Scenes: Measure: Check the form, strength and required volume. Use a clean needle-free measuring syringe; drops and millilitres are not interchangeable.; Dilute: Measure the label’s stated water amount separately and prepare the solution as directed. Never guess an oral bird dose from a water-mixing rate.; Refresh: Use a clean drinker. Replace water and clean equipment daily, or sooner when the label requires; an acidifier does not remove this task.",

      "promptBrief": "Water-compatible powder preparation. A powder intended for drinking water needs a weighed amount and its own water-mixing instructions. Scenes: Weigh: Match the powder formulation. Tare a clean weighing boat and weigh the label quantity with an appropriate scale.; Prepare: Measure water separately. Mix or disperse the powder exactly as its label directs; do not assume every powder dissolves or is water-compatible.; Refresh: Use a clean drinker and follow the label’s replacement interval. Prepare fresh water daily, or sooner when instructed.",

      "promptBrief": "Food-only liquids and oils. A liquid added to food follows its own label. Oil and drinking-water preparation are different processes. Scenes: Check the route: Confirm that this exact liquid is intended for food mixing. Match the stated food quantity and product form.; Coat evenly: Measure the liquid accurately and distribute it evenly through the food. Do not leave a concentrated puddle or assume oil disperses in water.; Offer fresh: Prepare only the portion you can use appropriately. Store the original product as labelled and discard spoiled or rancid food.",

      "promptBrief": "Fresh soft food and insect portions. Egg food, insect food and live insects are distinct foods. Species and life stage determine their role. Scenes: Choose: Match the species, breeding stage and exact food. A complete-food claim for insectivorous birds is not automatically a complete-finch-food claim.; Prepare: Follow the product’s dry, moistening or hydration instructions. Use clean tools and avoid leaving wet food standing for long periods.; Replace: Offer manageable fresh portions and remove leftovers before spoilage. Keep live-food cultures and feeding tools hygienic.",

Scenes: Introduce: Offer the matching pellets alongside familiar food. Do not abruptly remove the food a bird reliably eats.; Observe: Watch for swallowing and sustained intake. Provide enough feeding access for every bird, including quieter cage mates.; Monitor: Track body weight and droppings during a diet change. If intake is uncertain or condition declines, stop reducing familiar food and seek avian advice.",

Scenes: Clean water: Clean drinkers and provide fresh drinking water daily. Observe that birds can reach and use the drinker.; Shallow bath: Offer a clean, shallow bath when the birds can bathe and dry comfortably. This Gouldian illustration uses plain water.; Remove and dry: Remove soiled bath water and clean the dish. Keep birds away from direct air-conditioning drafts while wet.",
      "educationalScope": "Bath salts and aromatic products need their own species-appropriate instructions. A pigeon bath reference is not a drinking-water recipe or a finch concentration."

Scenes: Empty and clean: Remove birds, feed and water. Remove organic material, wash and rinse equipment before disinfection.; Follow the label: Use the correct environmental dilution and contact time for the local label and task. Keep the surface wet for the required contact period.; Rinse, dry, ventilate: Rinse food-contact equipment as directed. Dry and ventilate fully before restoring equipment and birds.",

Scenes: Clean and dry: Remove birds and feeding equipment. Clean the empty floor tray and let it dry before applying a dry bedding product.; Follow the surface label: Use the manufacturer’s surface-application instructions. Do not mix floorcovering into feed or drinking water, and do not infer a finch amount from a pigeon-loft rate.; Maintain the surface: Keep feeding and drinking equipment separate from bedding. Monitor dampness, soiling, dust and possible ingestion; replace or clean as the actual product instructions require.",

Scenes: List the base diet: Record pellets, seeds, egg food and insect foods, including their existing vitamin and mineral additions.; Find overlap: Compare vitamin A, D3, E, calcium and trace elements across products. More products do not automatically make a better ration.; Choose a reason: Give every addition a clear purpose and a matching label or nutritional plan. Keep composition figures separate from actual feeding doses.",

Scenes: Identify: Read the full product name, manufacturer, active ingredients, concentration and expiry. Keep powders and liquids as separate references.; Match the plan: A topical product, drinking-water product and livestock injection are not interchangeable. Use a species-appropriate veterinary plan for treatment.; Record: Record the prescribed product, route, amount and dates. Do not infer a bird dose from a percentage concentration or an unrelated pigeon programme.",

      "promptBrief": "Look beneath the empty hulls. A full-looking seed dish may contain mostly husks rather than edible seed. Scenes: Know the mix: Identify the seed mixture and additional straight seeds. Record weighed additions so the final ration remains understandable.; Check leftovers: Distinguish empty hulls from intact edible grains. Watch what each bird actually eats rather than judging only the surface of the dish.; Refresh: Replace soiled food and clean the feeder. Seed mixtures and single seeds have different roles within a complete feeding plan.",

      "promptBrief": "Calcium sources and insoluble grit have different jobs. Cuttlebone, soluble shell calcium, hard grit and a calcium/D3 supplement are not equivalent products. Scenes: Identify the material: Read the composition. A fine particle size alone does not establish whether a grit mixture is soluble or insoluble.; Separate the roles: Finches hull their seeds and do not need insoluble grit to grind seed. Soluble calcium has a nutritional role that must be considered separately.; Review the ration: Check existing calcium and vitamin D3 from food and other products. Do not turn a free-choice mineral product into an invented measured supplement dose.",

      "promptBrief": "Keep genetic parents and foster carers distinct. The coloured Gouldian is the genetic-parent reference; the brown-and-white Society finches represent foster carers. Scenes: Record origin: Identify the genetic pair, clutch and dates before considering a transfer.; Assess suitability: Consider health status, compatible timing and the foster pair’s proven care. Fostering is a management decision, not an automatic step for every clutch.; Track care: Record each transfer and monitor feeding and development without unnecessary nest disturbance. Retain genetic parentage in the chick record.",

      "promptBrief": "Follow the Gouldian through its life stages. Egg, nestling, fledged juvenile and adult represent distinct care stages, not a fixed calendar for every finch. Scenes: Egg: Record laying and regular incubation dates; use the species-specific guide when estimating hatch windows.; Nestling: Monitor parent or foster care and normal development with minimal disturbance. Feeding problems need prompt expert assessment.; Juvenile: A fledged bird is not necessarily weaned. Confirm reliable independent feeding before changing its support.; Adult: Review maintenance, breeding and moult separately. Adult colours develop after the plain juvenile plumage.",
      "educationalScope": "Gouldian finch concept illustration. Other species retain their own photographs, care guidance and developmental ranges."
