I was flogged from behind by one of my EE roosters last year. There had been no warning signs either. He actually pierced my leg thru a pair of sweat pants and made a hole in my calf the size of a 22 bullet . Needless to say, he made a great bowl of chicken dumplings. Now we use a band saw and cut the points off the horns when the spurs get long.

No need for a band saw, you should be able to just twist them off. i think some people use a potato cut in half and slide over the spur then twist. We use dog clippers and cut the points off when we dont twist them off.
Then might play some XBOX with Matt, Sam was the one that asked if he could stay up as late as he wanted and he is already passed out in my bed next to me!

I twist the long spur off at the base, but noticed that one of my roos (acquired at an auction?) had his spurs rounded off. I was wondering how that was done. I wonder if you could use horse hoof plyers to nip off the ends?
