ABSTRACT:
In a wax applicator for defeathering fowl, a pot is provided for containing a waxy composition into which the fowl to be defeathered is immersed for coating of the feathers with molten waxy material. A squeegee, preferably in the form of a centrally apertured and radially slotted rubber diaphragm, is disposed over the molten liquid material in the pot for ruffling the feathers of the fowl as it is pushed through the squeegee into the waxy material and for squeegeeing the excess molten waxy material from the fowl as the coated fowl is withdrawn from the pot. An outwardly flared support structure is disposed over the open end of the pot for holding the coated fowl and for draining the excess molten waxy material from the fowl back into the pot. The support structure is preferably hinged to the side walls of the pot such that the flared support structure pivots downwardly for storage in coaxial relation to the side walls of the pot.
