I would like opinions on the best way to butcher....I am considering the throat slit and bleeding them out, or just cutting the head off. Is one more humane than the other?

I do and have done both. I would say chopping is slightly more humane, but consider both to be humane if done right. I would say it takes just a few more seconds for the bird to die by slitting, but they seem to be very comfortable by that point.
Chopping is much messier and potentially more traumatic for the humans involved.
I will add that anything you do is going to better than what they go through in a factory farm slaughter house.
