🐔 SuperHandy Chicken Plucker: Efficient Electric Poultry De-Feather Remover - Heavy Duty Stainless Steel, 1HP, 92 Soft Fingers, 20" Drum Diameter Review

The kitchen helper is a very useful tool when collecting chicks. We did 50 birds with 6 people in just 4 hours. The scalding and plucking process was 1 minute or less per bird. If you are scalded, you can easily get a clean bird without torn skin. My fuse cover vibrated when I pulled it out once. It took about two minutes to come back. Make sure to poke a few holes in your 5 gallon bucket to catch the feathers. This allows you about 20 birds before having to dump a bucket of feathers instead of

Died on second take out. This item was easy to put together and worked great the first time.

After cleaning it seems to work better. The reason I bought it rather than build it myself was in the hope that I wouldn't have to fix or work on it too often. I hope

I love that it can pluck a chicken in about 10 seconds. This year's harvest gave me over 7 pounds of birds. I wouldn't advise putting 2 chicks of this weight at a time but if you are around 4lbs live weight then I think two is fine but you should remove the legs first as you know their nails are razor sharp. I molded a pvc ring under the inside edge for the water jets and it worked really well. The only thing I don't like is having to bend down to turn the motor on and off so I'm going to…

I have been raising meat chickens and turkeys for about 12 years and processing my own. I was cleaning over 2000 birds on a homemade wizbang plucking machine that would make chickens and turkeys until a tree fell on my barn and this took off. I wanted to buy a commercial one that could be found on a poultry site but didn't want to spend money on it.
