A capon is a rooster (a male chicken) whose testicles are removed at a young age. Typically the castration is performed when the chicken is between 6 and 20 weeks old.
The benefits are a non-aggressive male that can serve as a mother for baby chicks. They also produce ample, tender meat when butchered.
