I'm killing all the roosters in our flock, is there any advantage to either method. I'm inclined to chop off their heads unless this is a bad idea. Any thoughts?

Wow, excellent and timely feedback? I appreciate everyone's quick answer as I'm about to become a butcher in the morning. When I grew up we had chickens, and I helped behead and pluck them, but Mom did all the other work. Tomorrow it's baptism by fire as I hope to complete the whole process...

It's time to kill off all the un-wanted roosters in the flock as they are starting to fight each other. Do I need to keep one rooster, I don't think I'll be trying to hatch out eggs at this point. I've just got the hens for eggs.
