Lesley Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Good idea Hazel - the cone was invaluable when we despatched the turkeys. Carl has smaller hands than me! - and lthough we first started with the hand dislocation method, neither of us are able to do it with bigger chickens or turkeys.

WitchHazel Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 Well, DH was OK about the idea until he heard how much it was going to cost. I said I was going to order it anyway, so there was no point in arguing about it and I explained that, apart from anything else, it would be better for killing the geese than trying to do those by broomstick. He came back later and is fine about it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aunty e Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I wouldn't have wanted to do anything bigger than my dorking cockerels with a broomstick - it's very easy to do and to know when you've got it right, after the first one, which I totally botched , but you really need some welly on thick necks and my last lot were a good six months old with some muscle on them. Geese would be impossible! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
