My Mom and my Aunt would get together in the fall to butcher chickens; usually 50 or 60. Mom did the hold them upside down , lopping of their heads thing with a big butcher knife and dousing them in the boiling water. We kids then got to pluck them (and submit out work for approval) and take them to Aunt to Cut them up. Great memories!
