Is dark 30 a new group?

No. It is the falling active remainder of fresh dark 34, not a separate nest.

Why keep the second red-brown 25 independent of the first 25?

They enter different slots and clear different parts of the dessert. Merging same-count groups by number alone will scramble lane history.

Fill slots 1-5 with orange-brown 25, pale 29, dark 34, green 9, and separate red-brown 25, then preserve each lane's identity.

If the player asks you to sign in, open the video on YouTube instead.

Tap orange-brown 25, pale 29, dark 34, green 9, and separate red-brown 25 into slots 1-5 in order.
Track dark 34 through active 30 and 26 while the red-brown 25 drains separately.
Reuse the first cleared lane for the next exposed base, cream, strawberry, or highlight nest.
Keep repeated 25, 30, and 40 families tied to their entry slots.
Drain tail values red 2, pale 2, and orange 2, then their 1 remainders.
Confirm five empty slots and the FOOD HUNT completion celebration.

Map the five opening nests left-to-right so each slot owns one family identity.
When dark drops to 30 or 26, keep reading it as the dark-34 lane—not a new dark nest.
If two groups both show 25, decide by entry slot (orange-brown vs red-brown), never by the number alone.

Board notes 5 details

Layout: A red strawberry with green leaves sits on a red-white dessert over a brown base, with orange highlights, black outlines, and pale cream.
Goal: Remove the strawberry, dessert, base, leaves, outlines, and cream regions until the frame and tray are empty.
Opening: The first five taps are orange-brown 25, pale 29, dark 34, green 9, and separate red-brown 25 in slots 1-5, left to right.
Danger Zone: Repeated red 40/50, pale 30, orange 25/30, brown 25, and dark families can close all five lanes.
Mechanics: All five slots are usable; several groups start near 25/30 and must be identified by entry lane.
