I've never used capons as brooders, but it sounds like it would work. I learned to caponize because I did not enjoy my experiences with fast broilers (Cornish cross). Let them go a day past eight weeks and they implode. My husband called them zombie chickens because they never seemed fully conscious. I like a bird that can forage and run around. Too many cockerels are culled as it is. We need to make better use of our hatches.I didn't know anyone even knew what a Capon was these days . It's a good use for roosters that you don't want to keep for breeding . In the old days we would use them to brood chicks, ducklings , turkey peeps . What you do is pull some feathers off the capons breast and underside . Then switch him a little on the bare spot not hard enough to hurt him and simply place the chicks you want to brood under him he will adopt the chicks because they warm his bare spot he in turn warms the chicks, they make good mothers ( believe it or not .)
