The thread title is pretty explanatory. We've done a few birds dry pluck and its gone really well, I'm just curious if there is a thorough and efficient way to help get the elusive microscopic fuzzies off of the bird so we can salvage the skin on the duck for roasting.
 
i have seen a youtube about a chicken they ran over the whole outside of the chicken with a mini blow torch for all the small micro feathers...i dont kill my animals though
 
That's what I've heard. You can singe them off. I use duck wax and it takes care of any down and pin feathers.

Are you dry plucking to save the down?
