Rabid 1,936 Posted March 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2016 Mate, they gonna take some killing and plucking, will be a veritable feast though, on another note, if anyone hears of any plucking machines for sale Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gerjan 7 Posted March 7, 2016 Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 Take a look at the homemade drill bit pluckers on the web. I've made myself 1 some years ago, didn't have real plucker fingers so used pieces of rubber foil like the stuff they use for roofs and ponds. Looked real ghetto but worked like a charm and didn't cost anything. Still in operation today. Mailman brought me 100 real plucker fingers last week. Came from China for only €0.35 each. Mooched an electric motor, pulleys and belt and got an good deal on 1" square steel. Planning on building an dry plucker, but first got to build an bigger brooder, jap quail grow out cages, escape proof turkey fence, few more ferret hutches and the list goes on.. Will put pictures of these projects as soon as finished. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gerjan 7 Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 Do you want to see pics of the plucker I already made? Hope you don't, if I put pics of it online people might start questioning my workmanship. Basic al I did was drill some holes through an 2" piece of pvc, put rubber through and stuff it in hole saw. Was planning to make it nice but found out the pvc fitted the hole saw perfectly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
