Does anyone local know how to caponize chickens and if so, how much will you charge me?

I have not done it yet, but I obtained a caponizing kit from ebay. I wish I knew someone who has done a few that could show me in person. I have been a vet tech for 18 years now, so I am sure that I am more than capable, but it would still be nice to see an "expert" do it first. Also, I have searched everywhere for a good how-to video with no luck. If you find someone, post a video. I would love to see it.

I am processing my cornish rock roos tomorrow. I think after I've done the deed and they can't feel anything I might do a dry run with them. If doesn't seem to difficult on a huge fat dead chick I might actually get the guts to try it on a live small chick someday... I would love to raise something else besides cornish x for their meat, but my neighbors don't appreciate crowing. My one roo now is pushing it. And I can't bring myself to process a pullet.

We need someone to teach a class. I have a friend who has lots of Burmese friends... I'm hoping one of them knows how to do it and can teach me. Language barriers could be a problem but hey, beggars can't be choosers...

poor little roosters, i feel for them.

saw a guy do it once, he had it down. only took him about 1-3 minutes per bird! course he had probably done a few million birds by then!

Try less than 30 seconds per bird! WARNING graphic video: http://www.zmyanji.com/zmsp/201006/723.html
