If I were you, I'd just pressure can the rest. We have 15 birds , 6 are roosters kinda waiting to see who is the "best" rooster. The rest will go under the axe. Actually I will be using an old "safety" road cone. Stick em in there upside down, and lop off the head with a razor sharp knife. Like you guys I don't relish the thought. But it is part of being an independent food raiser!

    The Enclyclopedia of Country Living is one of THE best homesteading books I have ever purchased, and I still refer to it often.
