Effortless Feather Removal, Every Batch.
The Chicken Plucking Machine takes the hassle out of poultry processing, removing hair and feathers from chickens, ducks, geese, and other poultry quickly and consistently. Where hand-plucking a single bird can take up to 30 minutes, this machine’s high-performance motor spins a stainless steel drum at a minimum of 200 RPM to fully defeather a properly scalded bird in a fraction of the time.
Natural rubber fingers do the work, achieving 92 to 95% feather removal without damaging the meat or tearing the skin, while the food-grade drum washes clean with nothing more than a garden hose.
Economical and simple to operate, this poultry plucker is well suited to small poultry meat shops, backyard processors, and growing operations that need a dependable, low-maintenance way to save time and labour. It’s available in four sizes, from the 55 lbs heavy-duty version, so operators can match capacity to their typical batch size.

Take the Hassle Out of Poultry Processing
Fully defeathering a bird by hand is typically the most painstaking and messy part of poultry processing, taking up to 30 minutes per bird. This Chicken Plucking Machine changes that. Its high-performance motor spins a stainless steel drum at a minimum of 200 RPM, using natural rubber fingers to quickly remove feathers and debris from a properly scalded bird. Once plucking is complete, the food-grade drum washes out easily with a garden hose, ready for the next batch.
Simple and Economical for Small Operations
Built with a stainless steel frame and rubber fingers, this plucker delivers up to 92 to 95% feather removal in a simple, economical package that’s easy to clean and maintain. It’s a proven option for small poultry meat shops looking to save time and frustration during processing without investing in complex industrial equipment.
Four Sizes to Match Your Operation
From the 11 model, suited to occasional or small-scale processing of chickens and similar birds, up to the 55 lbs model built for chicken and larger birds, this machine is available in four capacities. Each size is matched with an appropriate motor power and rotation speed, so operators can choose the right balance of throughput and footprint for their business.
Consumer Benefits
- Faster Processing Turnaround: Reduced plucking time means poultry gets from processing to packaging or sale more quickly.
- Cleaner, More Consistent Results: Rubber-finger plucking reduces torn skin and damaged meat compared to manual plucking.
- Lower Labour Costs: Automating a traditionally time-consuming task frees up staff for other tasks.
- Easy Maintenance: A simple hose-down cleaning process keeps the machine ready for the next batch with minimal downtime.
- Scalable to Business Size: Four available sizes mean operators aren’t paying for more capacity than they need.
