This video shows a side by side comparison of plucking a chicken by hand and running one through the YardBird Chicken Plucker. It also gives you a good idea of what Syd does while Mike is working most of the time!
what is the best way to pluck a chicken? how long does it take to pluck a chicken? should i raise chickens for meat? what is the best animal to raise for meat? can i raise enough meat to feed my family? what is the best kind of chicken to raise for meat?

First time I've seen a mechanical chicken plucker. It definitely did a ton better than the hand job, lol. YOU KIDS ARE GREAT!!! Loved the humor which definitely adds to making a better marriage. Thirty years with my bride until she went to Heaven at 49 years of age, reminds me to tell you two to laugh often, love like there's no tomorrow, never ever go to sleep mad, pray together often, and keep the Big Guy first. May the Lord Continue To Bless You and Your Family!!!
+Matthew Latsha thank you so much for your very kind words ... I bet your wife felt truly loved ! Thanks for watching -SC
trust me, i will take the hand job over a mechanical anytime..... it does not come to plucking chickens
+SGT Fon 🤦🏼♀️
this couple gives the everyday couple hope. they should star in a reality based sustainable home show
+Karrie Daugherty oh wow thank you 😊 we def have fun together ... friends first and always 😜 thanks for watching -SC
Looks like the chicken plucker is a winner, winner, chicken dinner. They should call it the "Battered Chicken 5000" !
+Chad Summers it works great ! Def a winner ! Thanks for watching-SC
The swimsuit part was by far the best part.
+Tom Headley 😂 thanks for watching ... 😉-SC
it was? smh
Robert Swift YES! IT WAS!!
The machine did a nice job quick. Thanks!!
You’re welcome and it works great 👍🏻
I don't have any chickens, and I STILL want one of those things!
+Lou B it is pretty badass 😉-SC
In keeping this a family show, real glad your pronunciation of said "chicken plucker" was spot on!!
Watching 5 years after this was released. Didn’t find you until now.
So many outfits in one video.... epic! You guys keep having fun.
By hand it looks painful. By machine..... I couldn't stop laughing 😂 it's like sending the bird to Disney land 😂😂😂
+Agent. K. Well painful either way it isn’t since it’s already met the chicken Jesus at point of plucking -SC
I'll have a smile on my lips while I'm hand plucking my birds, too funny :)
😂
I grew up on a farm and remember hating to pluck chickens. I love the chicken plucker....never saw one before.
+Larry Kool it’s kinda awesome ! Especially for large quantities of birds 🤣
Best chicken plucking video ever, normally I get bored after 3 minutes ;-)
+Fab Funty hey thanks ! We do our best to inform and entertain 😉SC
Lol
Fun times, fun wife, very beautiful family. Future idea for video - keep the day going, pluck a chicken in the morning, enjoy the pool, start the BBQ, cook the chicken, throw in some salads, have the family meal, enjoy the pool, have a swing,etc.
+William Alespiller thanks for watching ... cool 😎 idea 😉_SC
Awesome machine got to get one for my folks on the farm.🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓
+BENNYBLANCOFTB yes it's great ! Yardbird even posted this video on their Facebook page today 😎 the machine is great huge time saver . Thanks for watching _SC
Ok...wow you guys are pretty cool informative and tons of fun.
I just built one of these chicken pluckers and was looking for a demonstration.
Nice work.
Look man 6 minutes and 47 seconds ! I would have thought a half hour. But 30 seconds to a minute!!! Definitely glad I got this plucking machine.
Thanks you two.
Shhhh🤫 not too bad in the swimwear either
😉👌
Have a great week you guys!!
I just subscribed
I mean NO disrespect, but I think this could be the coolest woman on earth. From the pink streaks in her hair in some of the videos to the complete sleeve tattoo, this woman is absolutely to die for. And somehow, she seems to be just as cool of a person, as she is beautiful to look at! YOU sir, are one lucky guy. My hats off to you sir!!!!
Well thanks for the compliment 😉 and thanks for watching
Outstanding video. Congrats.
+William Watterson thank you 😊SC
I enjoyed the lesson on the yard bird bucket plucker You both a very entertaining and your lovely wife is as cute as can be . Thanks for sharing .
+Dean Dopson hey thanks and thanks for watching 😉SC
I m thrilled.....last time i have experienced chicken pluckin....1954...
+Joe Buck Coker thanks for watching 😉 and it's still alive and well ... keeping homesteading from becoming a lost art .-SC
What a great looking chicken.
🤣🤣👍🏻 thanks
That's a great machine, it's nice to know it exists for when I start raising chickens on our farm. Enjoyed the video, it was educational and fun. Thank you.
+vegasheat71 hey thanks for watching 😉SC
I like it, my mother used to take the feather off chickens by submerging them in boiling water.
+mohammad abazari we do scald in 150 degree water but not boiling cause you start to cook the meat that way 😉SC
So far this is the most popular video tonight at the viewing party
+The Sinister Minister ha ha nice 👍🏻
You two are great together! Keep it coming Crouch Ranch!
+James Booe hey thanks buddy and we plan on it 😉-sc
You two are a lot of fun. Wish I had one of those when I was a kid. God bless you all.
+Thomas Leith hey thanks for watching and yes it's a life saver 😉SC
My first two birds took hours to process. Shrink bag stuck to the pot. 😂 I’ll study your vids, ty
😝 takes practice
You've obviously done it right man. Good on ya.
+Dan Huffman 👍🏻 thanks man
You Old Chicken Plucker ! LOL
Thanks and thanks for watching
Great video...thanks. This video sold me on the Yardbird Chicken Plucker..
+Richard Everett thanks for watching ! Yardbird even posted it on their Facebook too which was pretty cool ! We did 150 birds in it this season and it worked great ! -SC
I hope Yard Bird is giving you royalties!
😝 no I wish
I've seen chicken pluckers made from old washing machines by putting the fingers in the tub holes then using the spin cycle. Works the same as a chicken plucker.
Yes but you still have to get a motor for it ...
Great review and comparison between hand plucking and machine plucking.
+Rex Morgan thanks ... yardbird even picked it up and posted it on their Facebook 😳 pretty cool 😉SC
It took me forever to write the comment. I couldn't stop laughing to save myself.
😂
Glad you got done first Syd. Wow😮🌹
Lol well with the plucker it would be hard not to
I loved the swinging, too funny!! I laughed so hard!
lol, maybe are you able wringing a chicken's neck?
Great vid.
Thanks ! Yardbird even picked that one up 👍🏻
Just found you guys.....what a GREAT channel
Thanks !
I obviously can't be certain, but I'm willing to go out on a limb and say that this, is the best fuckin chicken pluckin video ever made, like ever. Cheers!
Lol thanks yardbird thought so 😉👍🏻🍻
I have to find another house before I start my channel as a homestead. Thanks for sharing.
+DIY Solar and Wind thanks for watching and good luck 😉👍🏻SC
Nice plucker!
Laughed so hard i fell out of chair and couldn't see straight. A yardbird chicken plucker he's not. Lmao!!!!!!
Please don't make fun of underwater basket weaving it was my major in college and quite difficult I might add ..😂another good video thank you and your daughter is adorable like mom
+Ray Dunkin 😝 we didn’t mean to offend 🤣🤣🤣 thank you S.C.
Plucker has my vote!!! Good time by hand tho, good effort!!
+Cordovan Bee thanks for watching 😉👍🏻-SC
good video , the plukker seemed to work well, the machine that is!
Thanks it does !
Great videos never heard of such a thing , looks like saves a lot of time.
It def does !
6:57 is by far my favorite part. nope, 7:53 is much better. You are a blessed man.
lol thanks for watching 😉SC
I am a middle aged guy and saw a couple of chicken murders in my time. Always wondered how a chicken plucker worked. I am a mechanical minded guy but had no idea how one worked. Still can't believe how fast and how well it did it. Blundered into this video.
+Chris Harris it is pretty slick that’s for sure 😉SC
Really suprised that machine did that well.
+Donavon Bain it’s the Bomb !
Nice that plucker is pretty slick
It is !
Love it! Great video. We are thinking about getting that plucker.
Who you calling a chicken plucker, chicken plucker.
+Brandon Matthew 🤣🤣🤣SC
Love what you guys doing! I see you guys drink beer and home brew has a whole nother globe of people/ vids/ viewers!! I guess im saying you should brew a batch of beer! Easier then plucking a bird for sure 😉
It’s in his list ! Hey thanks and thanks for watching
Really enjoyed this realistic review of the chicken plucker!
Thank you 😊
That is one fun gal right there. Helluva machine too! I do wonder how easy that thing is to clean out after several birds...
+Tim Wells thanks and thanks for watching ! It's actually super easy to clean out ... not bad at all SC
In the UK, we call that "nugget thing", which is the chickens tail, the Parsons nose..
Because it looks like a...
+Pete Me very cool thanks for watching SC
Great vid!! You guys are funny! Clearly you knew she would kick your butt..😁 I have done several rounds of CornishXs ALONE.. where was my wife??? I gave up and had last two rounds done at a processor place INCLUDING what dressed out as 8 28lb turkeys.. have been looking at pickers/pluckers so I can save time.. You sold me on this one.. thanks for sharing your review and beautiful family!!😉
+Rick Parshall hey thanks for watching and yes it would be slot of work to do alone ... we do all processing as team ... tell your wife to talk to me lol 😂 it's fun doing it together and spending time together ... it's a butchering date 😝SC
Lol! Dude your woman is baadddaassss! You better take care of her lol!
+jwgbmp40 😂 thanks and he does 🤣😜👍🏻SC

True American Family Love Your Video's Keep Em Coming!
Thank you
The Yardbird is awesome 👍
We love it !
Great video love the humor and watching you guys. Ray from Oregon
Thank you 😊
Definitely Would rather have the plucking machine.
Plucking a chicken by hand would get too old to fast for me. I would buy the machine before I needed to pluck my first chicken.
You two are great! Enjoy your vids so much 😂 Keep up the great work
Thanks and thanks for watching
WOW its worked better than i thought "STILL UNSAFE" unless kept the water off the motor puck puck puck
+426 SUPER BEE right ? Pretty slick and you can do two at once 😉SC
AWESOME i'am shocked, how a good job it done! i would have bet on you! he hee doing faster and better
we have another plucker where you have to hold the chicken with your hands and basically it has the same parts. and like the lady says that smell.we kill them by cutting right under the tongue and hang them bleeding out in a triangle shaped tube. then soaking them in not too hot water and plucking.
My Vegan drink causes local gravity storms
+Graham Rutter you have no idea 🤦🏼♀️🥃thanks for watching 😉-SC
i made vegan beer , that shit will set ya'll free
+Graham Rutter I love it !
Nice family. Now i want chicken for dinner.
+alexander5207 hey thanks and thanks for watching ! Yeah man go find a locally raised one and have a feast ! SC
That easy funny, started following you today!!
+Thomas Lewis thanks for watching 😉we aim to teach and have some fun 🍻SC
That's what you call punching above one's weight!!
Kool tube ...in the survival course i took in the military we skinned the bird & boiled it in our steel pot.
+Brother Mark yep that gets the job done but we did 150 birds to package so this helps a lot . Thanks for watching -SC
How can you not like this??? :D
+tbirdsteve1 thanks for watching 😉-SC
We never had the extra money for a machine (maybe didn't even make 'em back then?) so we did 'em all by hand. I sure don't miss it, but good to know how. Dad always had me chop off the head for the kill... we left the feet on to assist plucking, then seperated at the knees before stuffing and roasting...
+haywire17 old school def Works
GREAT VIDEO GUYS ....SENDING LOTS OF LOVE FROM CANADA :)
+joe momma thanks for watching ... oh Canada 🎶 🇨🇦 -SC
Ride Em cowboy, Yeehaw !!
+Jeff Jones thanks for watching 😉-SC
we made our own.trim down a blue plastic barrel, get a used motor, a shaft, a belt, a few bearings, etc. you can buy rubber chicken plucker fingers. put it all in a wooden frame. easily less than 100 $.
+David Keitel thanks for watching ... we looked into building and collecting parts but in the long run we found issue with some of the designs and getting the right kind of motor -SC
looks like a good investment thanks for sharing .
Thanks ! Yes it is if you are doing a large quantity of birds 😉👍🏻
Hey guys just started watching, really loving it. have you guys ever cooked a whole pig?
Thanks for watching... no not a whole pig ... cooking a whole pig isn’t really cost effective for us but it is a cool idea for sure
Hi Ya'll first time ever seeing your videos nice couple good job from Bakersfield Ca hello
+Kyle Greer hey thanks for watching 😉-SC
I DID set out to watch a video about the chicken plucking machine but found you also had plenty of distractions in the video to divert my attention.
I can certainly see the value of this machine if you needed to process a lot of birds on a regular basis.
I dont like how much water comes out round the bottom and so close to the electricals.
They should have designed a better drain system on it to a 2" pipe that sat closer to the ground.
Awesome job with the hand plucking though. 6 mins is still a good time. Unfortunately your wife wins this round hands down and probably would still be the winner if she hadnt plucked a chook at all. 😎
You have some great videos. Would love to see some videos from you on old farm machinery like tractors or stationary engines if you have any sittin around.
+1974UTuber glad you enjoyed .. thanks for watching SC
That machine plucks out the feathers and tenderizes the chicken at the same time.
+Thomas edwin 🤣🤣🤣
Yepper, I'm a red blooded all American male...a couple of times I forgot this was about seeing how well the chicken plucker worked. LOL. Thanks for sharing the link. They do work great. Problem is, can't find one anyplace here in Tennessee that has one. The actual website for the Yardbird Chicken Plucker company still sells them, apparently, but for like $100 more than TSC, etc. Probably won't be long though. I'll just kill a few for dinner the next couple of days while I wait. Y'all be safe. BTW, I subbed and I always hit the bell when I watch someone's video.
Did you try tsc online store ? You might still be able to buy it there and ship it to your closest store then shipping is free . That’s how we bought ours 🤷🏼♀️. Good luck and thank you 😊
@@3MISSISSIPPI Yeah, I tried them and a few other places, even online. TSC shows it on their main corporate site, but when try to put it in a shopping cart, says it is unavailable. Argh, should have bought one years ago. Thanks for the suggestion though.
Ask a manager if they can special order to the store for you 🤷🏼♀️
@@3MISSISSIPPI If they don't have it available on the main corporate site, I doubt they would be able to get it. But, I won't know unless I ask, right? Thanks for the suggestion. Y'all be safe.
Not sure about subscription but I did post it to share with the fam. Your beautiful wife reminds me of my daughter a little bit.I enjoyed watch how fast that machine works.
+Adrienne Denise well thank you for the compliment and thanks for sharing it 😉SC
Lol ever butcher lamb..all do respect..missy looks very pretty.
Enjoy your show n thankyou
Only chickens , turkeys and pigs .. oh my 😱 and thank you
Thankyou kindly for response..once again..great show.
😂😂😂😂u are so sweetly crazy!! Lol 👍🏼👍🏼
I’m sorry man your awesome too.
What if you dipped them in Nair?
+Ray Davis lol 😂 it's worth a try
You two are a great couple!
Thanks and thanks for watching
Do you think that machine would do good on ducks too? I love all your videos by the way. Mike, keep the humor in your marriage and tell that Lady you love her every day. God bless.
Hey thanks and if it was a smaller breed of duck I think so but I wouldn’t try another over about 12-14 lbs I’d say thanks for watching 👍🏻
You look like a widdle gurl on the swing! Haha The plucker machine also has my attention. Plucking is the on thing that dissuaded me from meat chickens.
+Wakeywhodat the plucker is a game changer ! Thanks for watching -SC 😉🥃
There is a gentlemen who came up with the chicken plucker, he called his the wizbang chicken plucker. He sells a lille instruction book the bottom plate made and ready to go to attach to pulleys, the fingers and some other parts and you basically use like the blue 40 gallon plastic barrels. I think their 40 might be 50 and basically build the thing yorself especially if you have like an old washing machine motor so your spending on that and anyway build it yourself for about 400 or so saving you money and they last a very good long while! Im wanting to say he has been using his for at least ten years. Just search, using any search engine yahoo,google or whichever for whiz bang chicken pLucker. He has other good little ideas/inventions on there as well
+The Duckling Homestead and Gardens we found the yardbird plucker to be great and was about the price it would have cost us to build one . Yardbird even shared this video to their page 😳 pretty cool 😎SC
Wow, cool!!! Wasnt aware of the price I havent seen the first video if it told...thanks for the info!!!
Nice video
+Alfredo Moreno thanks for watching -SC 😉
Your welcome
Nice guys
Thanks and thanks for watching
Thanks and thanks for watching
Love the vids keep going and cheers!
really good guys, love to get hold of one of those chicken pluckers. We are in Thailand and knock over 100 birds at a time, locals love me ha ha. It becomes a full five person full day. Have they got a web site, will check out shipping cost. I,m an Aussie, spent 2 years in the states down your way, great people. All the best guys, maybe a good bbq cook out would be good. Paul
It is very much worth it but I have no idea what the shipping cost would be. A BBQ cook out is a great idea for an upcoming video, thanks for watching :)
Love the videos. You guys are awesome. I always loved the Romona area. When I was in the Navy I spent alot of time there. Santee. Alpine. Black Canyon. Laguna MTN. Pine Valley. Awesome place!
Right on ... that’s how Mike ended up out here ... the navy👍🏻
You may not do a great job at guitar but she do awesome job at laying out.
