Here's what I have found that works for me that unfortunately I've had to do on both chicks and an adult birds that were suffering and I don't really think there is any humane way when it comes to killing any living
thing.What I do is take ether and spray it on a cloth or old rag then
get a baggy like a ziplock sandwich bag put the rag in it then put it
over the chick or adult bird and within 30 seconds they just fall asleep
there is no kicking or struggle they just close there eyes and within a
minute they stop breathing,believe me if there was a struggle I would
not continue to do it this way.To me using plyers or shears is not something I am comfortable doing,you have to do what works for you but also what you feel is the most humane thing possible for your animal.
