I pinch the throut untill they die. Seemed like the quickest easiest way to do it. I had to do it with my cinny the other day. I shot a pintail the other day and tried the biting the head thing and all that did was make blood come out the ear holes and beak and get everywhere

The taxidermist I used years ago said to carry a hat pin, or in his case a long T pin he used in his work.
Push it in and up at the base of the skull and scramble the brains. Just takes a second. Base of the skull? Trying to figure out where that means. I like this idea. Are you talking about coming up from the throat -- under the head behind the bill? Or from the back of the head pushing towards the eyes / bill? Or what?

ok ok no more head crushing.. I am a taxidermist.the best way i know is to take out a knife sharpen the end of a small stick lift one wing you will feel a soft spot under there.That will be the lung area. push stick into lungs move stick back and forth open up lungs and remove stick.bird will pass on to bird heaven.now the hole is covered by feathers when mounted.just try it...you can even use a knife blade(small).
