Good instruments are a necessity. You cannot prevent deaths and slips without them. Operate from both aides. Make the incision and remove the organ next to you. Then turn the bird over and repeat the operation. Operate on two or three dead cockerels which you have killed for frying until you can readily locate the organs and become familiar with the operation. Cockerels should be marketed as broilers or friers, or else caponized. As a general rule, cockerels which cannot be profitably marketed at a weight of two pounds or less by July 1 should be caponized. Don't market capons and slips in the same crate. Fatten them before marketing.
