The Muther Plucker

[Ray]

You cut off the wings, then lightly hold the duck so the fingers can pull the feathers out.
Then you dip the duck in water with a little wax on top and pull the wax off. Last, singe the pin feathers off and wash the duck in fresh water to get the burnt crap off.
There is no way it can get the pin feathers off with a duck plucker. If you put it on the fingers hard enough to get some of them off, you will bruise the meat pretty bad.
Most duck pluckers have a sheet metal or fiberglass shroud that directs the feathers out of the plucking shed or into a grass sack.
You will still get feathers on you though.
