Hi when I have chicks that are a few days old and need to be culled Oh i hate to say it but i have my hubby take it out he either thumps it really hard with his fingers like flicking it or a BB gun Uggh that was hard to type Good luck im so sorry

With a new hatch the quickest way is to snip its head off with a good sharp pair of sissors or a quick snatch downward on the head will break the neck.

a good heavy sack and a swing at the sidewalk

(quick and clean and no hands on chick and you can't see it)... Do NOT do the vinegar baking soda chamber!!! Drowning is out also... That takes too long.. Auuugg that is aweful and don't try to thump it over the head... It takes to many tries... ug.. just gutwrenching... I am so sorry for you... hang in there

what kind of sack plastic

 

[Brody's Broodello]

I take the chick put it in plastic bag & put it in the freezer. The chick get's cold & goes to sleep. It only takes a minute or two. I prefer this method, it's quick & easy I just put it in & walk away. Come back later, take out chick & put in trash.

 

[Cackling Hen]

do you have a heavy garbage sack possibly black? I dont know what kind of sack he meant.
