By crest you mean the comb on top of the roosters head and wattles underneath the head.They are removed to prevent later damage should 2 aggressive cocks meet. There are scissors with curved blades made especially for this purpose. I use a regular pair of sharp scissors and they do fine. Some people also use razor blades.
