Fantastic!

Just an FYI, you can copy and paste all the pictures and text from the first post right into the MyPage editor. It works really really easilly. Highlight, copy, go into editor, paste!

Very interesting- Thank you!
Sure glad that bird was dead....it reminds me of my legs, ha ha ha....

COOL! I'll have to show that one to Adam! That looks very interesting!

I'll have to try it and see how it works for us.

Thanks!

I wonder how it would work on quail... since the skin is only warmed, not scalded...

Afterwards, I rinsed the chicken to get the rest of the wax off

I don't quite understand this. Did you just rinse the bird in water?​

 

[Mrs MIA]

Yep... warm water... the wax is mostly gone, but there are usually a few flakes left on the skin and the water just rinses them off. The chicken is practically baby-butt smooth.

It worked really good on my uni-brow, so it MUST work on chickens!
