Chicken question

[2busy]

The worst part of raising chickens for meat is the PLUCKING. Ran on to these in youtube and built one. Its GREAT.

I have one I pu by rchased from tractor supply and has worked for me. I did a little mods to make it more user friendly. I also have one I built 15 yrs ago that has the plucker fingers on 4" pvc ran with electric motor and fan belt on a stand

Have a yardbird plucker from tsc. Gave thought to building one but the clearance price we got said otherwise. I couldn't imagine not having it lol. You do 40-50 in a weekend and it's still a serious chore.

My buddy bought the stuff, I did the machining, and he assembled this!



He is filming and I am the arm with the watch!

Saw that this morning, but missed the additional article about hunting and processing wild game. I assume wild turkeys are susceptible to it as well. Anybody know for sure?

I've been following it, 23 states so far. Whole lot of chickens plus turkeys.

I've got 10 standard dark Cornish ordered and 6 red rangers. If they ship and arrive here I'll have a chicken project to work on.

Was notified that the bird flu got the hatchery, So if we get either of our 2 chick orders it'll be cuz we're blessed. Man ole man is the swirl picking up.
