Rooster culling

My boss has chickens in a more heavily residential part of town. His rooster was crowing early at 5 AM every morning which began to upset his neighbors. This is a good lesson for backyard chicken enthusiasts. Roosters are loud and proud. Well, the neighbors won out and Mr. Cock came home with me to go in the pot. He was dispatched humanely and processing time from start to finish was 2 hrs. Not the fastest time, but at 4:30am, I was in no rush. Bird is in a nice red curry now and the Neigbor is glad to have her rest. My rooster lives safely with his hens in a rural setting were all the neighbors have crowing fowl and no issues with the early bird action. Keep that in mind suburban chicken hopefuls. 😉
