What are some humane methods of euthinization that we can do?

Broomstick method.

On no , I am sorry that she is worse. Euthanizing her is really up to you. I know that you don’t want to see her suffer. Will she sleep if your put her down? It seems more like she may have Mareks. Do you want to try and get a necropsy and get her tested for it the disease by the state vet? That is the only way to know for sure. The body has to be refrigerated, but not frozen, and taken or sent in to the state poultry lab as soon as possible. Does she have a chicken sling to place her in for the night? Try to make her as comfortable as possible while you decide what to do.

Also no I don’t have a sling, how do I make one?

Broomstick method.

Thank you, I will research online.

There are some poultry labs that @Chicken canoe posted the other day. Let me look around. I usually cut the jugular and they bleed out within a minute or two. Cervical dislocation is what many use to put them down.

Please don’t watch this video until you are sure about putting her down.

This video is very graphic, but the method of killing the chicken is very quick and humane:

How about carbon monoxide poisoning? I read that you can do it with baking Soda and vinegar in a closed container and it calms them down and then they fall asleep and don’t wake up. Is it truly safe and painless for them?

Anyone know? Just want to make sure that it is safe and painless for Daisy.
