There are several, more humane ways, including shooting, but I suggest instead of killing them, simply try to sell them. The pet chicken business is becoming incredibly popular in the last few years, and I never have much trouble finding a home for any chickens I want to sell. Try your local classifieds, or your local farmer's market, or free places such as Craigslist, Backyard Chickens Forum, or bulletin boards in your local stores or post offices. Even if YOU don't want the chicken, there's bound to be someone who does. Many people on Backyard Chickens Forum actually pay shipping for the chicken, so distance isn't an issue. So instead of killing the chicken, you can actually make money off of him or her! Good luck!
