I think the humane society checks out traps with a deposit. My neighbors got rid of some chickens that were pooping on their patio that way, and it was easy. As far as grabbing one, I'd say avoid doing it in a way that allows it to get at you with the spurs just above the feet. You should be able to google the part about dressing one. I have done it with hens before, but you might be better off with professional instructions. Also, I've been told a rooster would have to be very young to be good to eat. YMMV
