Blue Laced Red Wyandotte Roosters

I may have a couple to give away if there is any interest. Let me know. I can get some pics if interested.

In the Fuquay Varina area.

Ok, there are 4 roosters about to succumb to lead poisoning.

Seriously though, what is my best method of destruction to cull these roosters?

A wood stump or a kill cone and a hatchet/machete.

Hold them upside down, head facing down, they will calm quickly. Drop it into the kill cone and lob off the head. Quick and humane. If you have trouble catching them, wait until night when they roost to grab them.

Grandma N would throw a little feed at her feet and when one came over she'd grab it by the neck.
Throw it over the stump she used and off with the head using her hatchet.
Chicken/rooster would run around for a bit while she did the others.

Something of an experience the first time I watched her at 4 years old.

The Rooster issue has been resolved...... We will start over in Feb.

I have one Hen and just moved her back to the coop. She laid me an egg a few days ago so she earned her keep.

I am very curious how she acts with new chicks in the flock. She is pretty docile.
