## Overview

The Yardbird 21833 Chicken Plucker is a professional-grade poultry processing tool featuring a powerful 1.5 HP motor spinning a 20-inch stainless steel drum at 300 RPM. Equipped with 110 natural rubber fingers, it efficiently removes feathers in under 30 seconds while ensuring safety with a drum-sensing switch and GFCI. Its integrated irrigation ring enables hands-free feather flushing, and transport wheels provide easy mobility. Designed for durability and easy cleaning, it’s the ultimate time-saving solution for backyard and small-scale poultry processors.

## Description

The Yardbird Chicken Plucker takes the hassle out of back-yard chicken processing. Fully defeathering a bird in 15 seconds or less, the Yardbird Plucker revolutionizes what is typically the most painstaking and messy chore of processing a chicken which can take up to 30 minutes per bird if plucked by hand. With a high performance 1.5 horsepower motor the Yardbird spins a 20” stainless steel drum at 300 RPMs to quickly remove feathers and debris from a properly scalded bird. The 110 natural rubber fingers ensure that feathers are removed without damaging the meat or tearing the skin. Unlike many competitive units, the Yardbird has an integrated irrigation ring that fits up to a garden hose to flush plucked feathers out the shoot and into a collection bucket. A safety switch senses that the drum is attached before operation while a GFCI protects the operator from any excess electrical current ensuring a safe user experience. Once plucking is complete- simply wash out the food-grade drum with a garden hose and roll the unit back to storage using the built-in transport wheels. If you are looking to save time and frustration while processing your meat birds, the Yardbird is a proven product that can improve your experience and your results.

Review: Would recommend! - Used it to process 80 birds. Easy to set up, clean and move. Worked great and didn’t have an issue with it ripping or destroying the birds. Saved a ton of time. Had each bird plucked in less than 30 sec.
Review: Yardbird landed on my porch - The Yardbird landed on my porch unlike other pluckers that are only delivered curbside with a truck or lift gate. The box looked like it had been through a war but the product was in good condition. There was a small ding in the fan cover on the motor so I contacted Yardird and they sent a replacement within two days. The unit functioned fine without the new part but when you spend your hard earned dough on an item you want it to look great as well. The Yardbird customer service is excellent. They answer the phone and speak English without an accent. The unit has some assembly required however for hundreds of dollars less than any other unit I was wiling to use a couple of wrenches to put it together. The instructions are well done and obviously written by someone that knows the English language. The manual contains assembly instructions, warnings, and even a parts page that shows all of the replacement parts that one could order if there was an issue. I was pleasantly surprised that there is a one year warranty published in the manual and there is a serial number on the manual cover that matches the serial number on the machine. I found this useful while calling customer service. Like many others I considered building a plucker. I looked at the detailed lists of parts that others have published to build their own. Just the materials ranged from $450 - $750. Also, you needed to be a machinist, a carpenter, and dabble at being an electrician to get it all together. To put this in perspective I researched purchasing a 1.5 H.P. washdown grade motor and the motor cost as much as this entire machine. This unit is a performer. With 1.5 H.P. and no belt slippage this thing can easily handled two seven pound birds. It's advertised rating is two eight pound birds and I believe that it can handle it. It is advertised as completely plucking two birds in 15 seconds. This is also accurate. If you are familiar with plucking by hand or with one of those external drum pluckers that throws the feathers everywhere this product will speed up the operation substantially. The secret is in the scald just as all other plucker users and reviewers have mentioned. When you are processing and forget to turn the scalder burner off you will get a couple of chickens with ripped skin. I also had a couple of birds with broken knee joints however the next step is to cut the foot off at the knee so this is not a deal breaker. The drive train is completely sealed and maintenance free (says the manual). We will see if it stands the test of time but it appears to be very solid especially in the drive train (motor, gearbox, and output shaft). After butchering the machine can be cleaned by releasing the latches on the tub. There is a nifty safety switch that does not allow the machine to operate without the stainless tub in place. My only complaint is that the on/off switch is a bit hidden from sight. Once a few birds are processed finding the switch is second nature but it takes some practice. All in all this product works and does exactly what is advertised. I would recommend this to a friend.

## Features

- POWERFUL AND EFFICIENT PROCESSING: With a heavy duty 1.5 HP motor and 300 RPMs of spinning force, Yardbird can de-feather chickens, ducks, geese, hens, waterfowl and other birds in just 15-30 seconds following an appropriate scalding process. A roomy 20” diameter drum easily accommodates many sizes of birds.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good budget chicken plucker for home use
*by M***S on October 5, 2025*

Works good with cornish cross chickens it works ok with red rangers but leaves a few more feathers. Had to replace fingers near end of second year due to cracking and breaking off. GFCI module got wet during second year of use and quit working. Motor sometimes just hums when starting and doesn't spin. I have to spin by hand when it happens but it will still run. I have been reasonably happy with this machine but seems to need a lot of maintenance to keep working for no more than we use it. I'll tear into the motor start circuit when were done this year no time now got process chickens. Beats hand plucking for sure and easy enough for anyone to use. Easy clean up with the removable drum. My expectations were reasonable since I did buy the least expensive one I could find. We pluck about 150 birds per year. Works ok with turkeys up to around 25 lbs live weight larger than that is more difficult to manage. Works with ducks but more hand plucking is necessary. Overall I'm ok with this unit it gets the job done.
