Holdly Medium Size Chicken Cone, 8lbs Galvanized Steel Poultry Restraining Cone for Chicken,for Large Layers, Broilers, Roasters, Turkeys Up to 8 Pounds Flat-Back Poultry Killing Cone Easy to Clean

Why did you pick this product vs others?: These cones worked well, however I should have purchased a bigger size. I had a couple of 4 pound birds that fit perfectly, but the majority of the chickens were about 5.5 pounds. These took a little extra effort to get their heads through. But the cones are sturdy and easy to clean.

It did the job, but I wouldn't recommend it for a full size rooster or hen that weighs more than 5 lbs. (3 lb dressed) because the width of their breast with wings made it difficult to get the body down far enough to get the head adequately through the cone. Will need to purchase a larger one for the bigger birds. We found it difficult to handle the head and neck when hung on a flat board because it lays flush with the board, but adding a 2x4 block behind the bottom of it helped provide extra space. It is easy to clean with soap and water.

These were to small for our birds, which weighed between 6.5 to 7.5 pounds but still did a good job.

Worked pretty good. Large or fat birds might have to be really shoved in there.

Last a long time in all weather conditions, no rust, works well, very sturdy

Good quality, worked perfectly for our needs

Excellent device for the job. Sits flat against the wall.

It’s not pleasant no matter how you do it, but this holds everything together as you dispatch your birds. It has those handy screw holes that allow you to slide it up and off so you can keep your inconspicuous screws where you hang it and then put your cone away after. It’s great for a backyard processing area.
