  • Method of packaging fowl within stretch bags
    Patent number: 4352263
    Abstract: Stretch bagging, particularly a method for stuffing a chicken carcass into a stretch plastic bag. The method is characterized by its alternate application of a central pushing force and a chicken leg pushing force, so as to hock or compress the chicken within the stretch bag. The hocking of the chicken within the bag eliminates the time-consuming and expensive necessity for clipping the chicken legs together prior to packaging and, also, presents a more uniform and pleasing appearance of the packaged carcass.
