You should study up on Capons... That’s one that will keep you baffled.

Julia Child did a show on chickens and lined them all up and that's how I learned about Capons.

The show was hysterical as she took her samples one by one and seated them on her counter. God Bless the Lady.

As a young hayseed in FFA, as a project to raise money we raised capons to dress and sell for Thanksgiving. So we bought several hundred male baby chicks and castrated them. A rooster’s testicles are on each side of his ribcage. You lift his wings, cut a little slit between a certain two ribs, pull the testicle out with tweezers, snip it off, squirt a puff of sulfadrug powder in the inccisions and let him go. Capon is much more to my liking than turkey.
