I can feel your pain. I have kept crippled poultry. Most
died young of natural causes--sparing me from having to
kill them. I provide sudden death only if I can see that a
bird is in pain. I had baby peacock with messed up legs
that lived seven long years (a healthy peacock can live for
thirty years)
But if death must be provided I suggest sudden removal of
the head is MUCH kinder than using any sort of chemical
to "gas" the bird.
If you want to send me a close up photo of the joint
under a good light I will look at it but can not say that
it will do any good.
