May be a dumb question but let them sit dressed out or still fully feathered?

It does get easier in that respect. For me, I was borderline sobbing the first time I had to do a bird in, & had to psych myself up for days. I hated every inch of it.Thanks everyone, I guess easier was not the best choice of words but getting used to it maybe. I do hunt and fish but those arent animals I have picked up and carried around and raised...anyway, I may try it here soon enough and see. I am unsure of the broomstick method, I do not want to do it wrong. I may just go to decap I think would be best.
Would a large buck knife be ok or shears?

Thats what I thought, thank youDressed.
I don't think shears would work. The knife has to be razor-sharp so it can get the job done quickly and thoroughly.Thanks everyone, I guess easier was not the best choice of words but getting used to it maybe.

I thought of using loppers, but decided the short handle was better... and we all know how quickly kids manage to get their patties on any set of loppers and gum them up with pine sap.I only use shears on quail. Don’t think they would work on chickens. For larger fowl I use tree loppers. I decapitate while in the cone since I do all the steps myself.
Some have said straight into the pot is also effective as resting.Thats what I thought, thank you
