ABSTRACT:
The disclosure pertains to means and method for effectuating considerable squeezing to a fowl between a back supporting surface and a breast supporting surface whereby the so treated poultry has it feces squeezed out of its anus. The squeezing manipulation occurs most satisfactorily downstream of the scalding step i.e. the feather removing step and prior to an eviscerating step. The bird is carried by a shackle arrangement in a conventional manner, i.e. the bird is carried upside down by a moving endless chain and is either manipulated or worked upon in a conventional and well known manner at various stations. The manipulative station to unload the intestines or feces and the wash away of the excrement is the gist of the present invention.
