Re: [CHICKENS-101] Experience with capons

 

I am checking with a vet about doing the caponizing. Our vet does livestock but doesn't caponize Roos.

I am considering the following - caponizing them and keeping them, raising and processing them and giving them away. The problem with the last choice is I come from a place where more than half the people you might come across didn't know how to treat animals humanely.

They weren't something I asked for, but I feel the need to ensure they have a good life, whether it be short or long.

Never raised them nor have I did the surgery.  I tend to avoid invasive surgerys because I do not have the capability to put them out or sedate them.  I have read that capons are more gentle and do not fight with other roosters.
