Just curious i dont join shows but when dubbing the bantam for show do you also cut the earlobes like old english game bantams? Or is it just like that in the video
No, it's not forbidden, you CAN slaughter them for meat, they just don't have a lot of meat on them so people who raise birds for meat would never raise them for that purpose. Very inefficient.
Supporting the practice of dubbing is unethical. Amputating the healthy body parts of a healthy animal can't be justified. It's unfortunate to see this practice still being normalized in the US. We really are behind on progress for animal rights in this country.
dubbing is done for the health of the rooster. for example you have a peacomb cock, his comb affects his eyesight which can lead to problems with its vision. a dubbed rooster is also less prone to frostbite and infections.
