My grandfather, back in the 40's, besides being postmaster, sold chickens in West Dennis. Preferred the hatchet that looked like a small executioner's axe. To this day if we say, "You look like a chicken without a head," my mom gets all bent out of shape, because as a kid she had the job of chasing them down and pl#^^^^^&g the feathers. But they never thought of using the parts for crabbing.
