Tabletop picker / plucker for chicken or poultry ITEM IS NEW This is a picker/ plucker for poultry, removes feathers off of chickens, ducks, turkeys, pheasants, quail and geese in as little as 30 seconds. This Item is NEW in the box. Has features of Commercial pickers at a fraction of the cost. Made by Dux industries, this device uses a high torque 1/6 HP 1750 rpm 115 volt motor to turn a drum with rubber fingers that remove feathers from the bird. The device has metal drum with rubber fingers, a metal safety grate on the top, four short metal legs and a metal belt guard on the side. The motor and belt are included. Table top version. Easy to use instructions included. All steel construction. Dimensions of the picker: 15 inches high, 14 inches wide, 30 inches long. Shipping weight ~50 lbs with motor. I also sell replacement rubber fingers at 1.50 each. Tips Recommended by the manufacturer: Completely bleed out the bird. After bleeding, scald and pick as soon as possible. Feathers soon become difficult to remove if the birds are not picked soon after killing. Hold the bird by the legs and wing and lay it on its side on the rotating drum cleaning the side and wing. Hold bird so fingers on the picker move away from the legs toward the top of bird. Turn the bird to clean the breast, neck and legs. Continue turning and clean the other side and wing. Remove feathers from underneath the bird and back of legs by continued turning of the bird. Finish feather removal on back preferably holding bird so that fingers on the picker move toward the back of fowl. Pull out primary wing feathers by hand to finish job. DUCKS AND GEESE The success of feather removal depends on cutting the oil in the feathers. Detergent added to water often helps. Some people have found they pick with no scalding at all (dry pick). They then scald and remove the remaining feathers. Others use the picker to rough feathers and then scald and pick as usual. Technique for ducks and geese will change according to species of the fowl, age, feed, killing method, temperature and time and other factors. Experimenting with wild fowl will find the best technique. Visit the manufacturers website at: dux-industries.com for more information. Click on the images below for a larger image
