A smart feller might have figured out the first time his avatar pic got changed to Bozo the Clown that maybe a little animated finger on the panties gif is a wee bit too racy for some cubicle bound at work web surfers, and a NSFW notice can't follow you to every thread you post on. Richard Simmons is stage 2.

So, your masters have been removing your spurs. That's several role-playing scenarios nixed for you, Lothario.

 

What method did your lords use to emasculate?:

 

1. File down the tip of the spur with a dremmel or other grinding instrument. Since the spur continuously grows, like the toe nails, this procedure will have to be repeated as the spur tip grows out.

2. The spur can be removed when the rooster is still a chick. A veterinary uses electrocautery to hinder the growing cells of the spur.

3. Instead of cutting them, which is dangerous, you can take a pair of pliers, place them at the base of the spur near the leg, and twist until they come off. It removes the outer sheath of the spur leaving a much smaller spur underneath. I do this to my show roosters as it makes them look more “classy” to the judges’ eye.

4. The plier method will make them bleed, but I have never had one scream in pain yet and I’ve done thousands of roosters like this. Just put some water on the spur and dab some fresh household WHITE SUGAR on it. This will keep the spur clean while helping to clot the blood. The spur shell makes for unique jewelry/pendants too.

5. Wire cutters may also be used by snipping off the tip of the spur. Be careful not to snip off too much as this can cause profuse bleeding and a very unhappy rooster. Cutting too deep means that you’ve cut too far into the new soft spur that is found underneath the old cap. After snipping a metal file may be used to file the edges smooth.

6. This method is said to remove a spur permanently. This is done when the cockerel is 10-16 weeks old and the spur is 1/4 inch long. The spur is cut off close to the cockeral’s leg. After cutting the spur then rub potassium hydroxide into the wound to prevent profuse bleeding and also preventing the spur from regrowing again.

7. Another known method is using an electric calf dehorner and burning them off. This has been said that it is a permanent form of removal. With this method you must be extremely careful not to burn too much or too little. It’s said it doesn’t bother the rooster and he’s back to normal in a couple of days.

8. According to Stromberg’s Book of Poultry is the following: Place a hot baked potato on the spur and hold it there for a few minutes. Remove the baked potato, twist the spur and you will find it comes right off. There is no blood or mess. This technique really works well.

9. A Dremel Motor tool with a cut off wheel attachment may also be used. With this method one person holds the rooster’s leg and the other cutting the spur off just before the quik. There is the risk of cutting too close and profuse bleeding may result.
