Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
Sort by:

  1. Is this unit able to pluck turkeys also? like a 20 pound turkey

    1 answer

    1. The manufacturer only recommends 15 lbs. total in the plucker at one time. With a 15 lb. turkey, the legs and wings need to be trimmed in order to get the bird to tumble during the pluck.

      Helpful?

  2. Will this unit pluck ducks and small game birds?

    Wondering if this unit will puck ducks, mallards and game birds from quail, pheasants and chukar.? The spec state that the unit can hold two 8lb birds. So does that mean it may be able to hold 4-5 smaller birds that equal 8 lbs in weight?
    Also I'm assuming the fingers are replaceable ?

    1 answer

    1. This unit is capable of plucking ducks and other small game birds. This unit is only capable of plucking two birds at any one time regardless of size. The fingers on this unit are also replaceable.
