A Guide On How To Make A Chicken Plucker

By Connie Sears


Farmers who raise chickens would be able to relate when it comes to the difficulty of plucking out all of the feathers of the roosters and hens. Now this task is extremely hard and very long because if one would do this manually, he will just tire himself out in a short span of time. So if he would want an easier time with the process, then read this short guide on how to make a chicken plucker.

A barrel is the first thing that is needed because this will be the main component. Now one should first be sure that the barrel is just the right size so that it is not difficult to handle. It should probably just be big enough for the arms to fit in perfectly.

The barrel holder will be the next thing to take because this is the one thing that will keep the thing in place. Now to create this, one must get a few planks of wood specifically around eight pieces. The thing to do with these few planks is to be able to connect thing and make some sort of wooden stand where in the contraption can fit.

After that, one should now drill some holes into the barrel. These holes will be the places where one will stick in some sharp wooden spikes which will actually serve as the tools that will pluck out all of the chicken feathers. So once some holes have already been drilled, create some wooden spikes and start inserting them in the hole.

When that is done, one should now try to create a disc object that is made out of wood. Now the disc should be big enough to fit inside the barrel but not too small as well. Just be sure that the disc has a little bit of space before it touches the sides of the barrel.

So once the disc has already been constructed, then one should now drill some holes into the disc that are the same size as the holes that were drilled in to the barrel a while ago. After that, take some wooden spikes that were made just now and start inserting these spikes into the small holes. Now take note that the disc is the part that will be providing the movement that will shred the feathers of the poultry.

The final task would be to get a big drill with a very sturdy and thick drill bit. Now the drill has to be very big and heavy so that when it is attached to the contraption, it can hold the weight of the device. So once one has gotten the perfect drill, then attach it to the bottom of the holder.

So for those who are interested in this device, then follow this guide on how to make a chicken plucker at home. By building this, one will be able to shorten the time in which one will take out the feathers of the chicken. The best part is that it is not very hard and time consuming to make.
