The one stumbling block to us having chickens previously has been that I refuse to pluck chickens. I'll kill them, scald them, eat them, but I'm NOT plucking them!
Its a horrible, nasty, stinky job - I offered the job to dear hubby *g* but he declined, with much haste I must add - and declared he'd rather build something, anything!
I did some research with the help of the wonderful folks on the NewOkiePioneers yahoo list and discovered the creator of "The Whizbang Chicken Plucker", Herrick Kimball- I ordered the book from the library (I like to see what I'm buying first, if I can, no pigs in the poke for us!) and decided it was definitely worth adding to our personal collection of books.
So, hubby has a project for winter - to build us our own handy, dandy whizbang chicken plucker *g*
Here are two links of it in action:

So did he get the chicken plucker built? If so, I'd love to know what you think of it. We spent Saturday plucking by hand......
