Electric duck plucker?
 
Does anyone use an electric duck plucker w/ the rubber fingers? Wonder how they work?

I would like to see how this would work on ducks and geese they are little pricey but seems like the ticket

We used to use one when I was young and we hunted the marsh around vbay. It's too easy to pay $2.00 a bird now and they ready to put in the freezer wrapped and all.

If it was 2 bucks a goose than absolutely, but last year it was 7 bucks, so I cleaned mine myself. There's several links on that one I posted of people that have made similar machines, and I would imagine it being pretty easy if you can find a cheap second hand washing machine

I don't find geese as hard to clean as ducks though. Anything over 10 ducks suck to clean. Normally when we shoot over 10 geese it's mostly snows. Step on the wings and pull the legs. Makes it really to skin em.

That's what I'm saying even no matter if you got a easy way to clean them or not that's the ticket for someone who is huntin 4 or 5 times a week even if you have 15 or 20 ducks that's quick work and after a year at 5 to 7 bucks a bird it'll pay for its self in a season or two

They work pretty good. Especially if you scald the ducks first.

j.e.hagen 09-28-2013 09:02 PM
One of the videos said you have to scald and you have to have a way to wash plucked feathers out. The bad thing is to buy one of those machines the cheapest I saw them for was 600

My uncle build one of the whiz bang pluckers, bought all the instruction manual and pieces from the guy that makes em. While they do great for chickens like shown in the YouTube videos they DO NOT work as great on ducks. They are too small and either get ripped up pretty bad or get spit out of the feather discharge. I've witnessed this first hand.

I bet that wasn't pretty lol

When I was a kid we had a box with a motor inside with rubber knobs on it. Then had shop vacs hooked to them. Turn on the motor and shop vac and pluck em. Shop vac would suck up all the feathers and you would just dump shop vac.
