Ducks In Chicken Plucker

[KevinEleven]

i usually scald chickens at 140-150 to pluck, when I did Muscovy's I had to raise it to 160-170 to get them to pluck right.

put a big warning before the picture? I am curious!

She will likely need to ask permission to post it, she is serious it might be a little too graphic. I really wish the folks here at BYC would start a "view at your own risk/don't come crying to us" section for stuff that may be a little questionable tho, like the pic. something where it's not "naughty" but perhaps pg13 nr17 nothing x rated.

Yep. oldrooster saw it and knows.

Can I ask what actually happened that was so graphic? I have seen pheasants, duck and geese, done with the same plucker. Only thing special was to wet the bird in normal tap water (for traction) that was it. :/

Yes, I can imagine. This may sound strange but out of respect for the proper way to humanely process a bird, this is clearly not the way to do it. Although this duck was not intended to look this way after processing and there was some type of "malfunction" with the process, I feel so bad and guilty of the outcome. I really hate to put the duck's body on display for the whole world to see. Poor duck. :/
