posting here since the topic seems to come up more here than with layers. need a quick way to dispatch. have a friends chicken- was discovered to be an egg eater. came from an auction and is very very skittish. catching her will be trauma enough- I usually sit with them wrapped in a towel and comfort a bit before slitting throat but I think getting her into the towel and any additional handling will just be worse for her. I do not yet have a cone-is there any process that I can implement as I pick her up? I broomstick rabbits and am wondering if something similar would work with a chicken but in my hands versus on the floor?
