How to humanely dispatch & butcher chickens & poultry / cervical dislocation & broomstick method
If you live on a farm or homestead learning how to humanely kill an animal is one of the most important skills to learn. One quick and painless method for dispatching, culling or killing a chicken, whether hen or cockerel/rooster is the cervical dislocation method (breaking the neck) as it is both quick and painless for the animal and also very clean. You can do this with just your hands or using what is known as the broomstick method for larger poultry.
If you are culling birds, you will also want to know how to butcher them. In this video I go through all the steps in this process, showing you how to scald and pluck, eviscerate and clean making your birds table ready.
We will discuss rigor Mortis and storing your birds and any other information you will need for processing chickens yourself.
None of the techniques I use need fancy equipment and you will have all the things I use on your homestead already.
