Meat birds

[brendaB]

What equipment do I need to process my meat birds?

Extremely sharp knives.
a killing cone helps, you can make one
a table that you can wash
a means of scalding the bird, I usually use 5 gallon buckets (water at 145-150F)
extremely sharp knife
a bucket or box for the feathers, a bucket for the guts
a hose or outdoor sink to rinse the bird inside and out
ice
a cooler for the meat
a bowl for the liver, heart, gizzard
vacuum sealing equipment is preferred for freezing

did I say very sharp knife?

I don't think you mentioned a sharp knife...sharp knife X2! Makes life easier. A helper(extra set of hands) is always nice as well.
