A capon is a rooster that has had his testicles removed surgically. In some area, an estrogen capsule may be inserted under the skin to produce "chemical" castration. Capons are easier to handle with their reduced aggressiveness, the meat is sweeter (less gamey) and more moist and tender. The meat has more fat because the capon is not as active as a rooster.
