ABSTRACT A poultry-harvester for use in a poultry house comprises two contra-rotating rotors arranged side by side with the flexible fingers of each rotor abutting and/or intermeshing with the fing- ers of the other rotor. In operation, as the harvester is driven towards the birds to be harvested, the two rotors are rotated in opposite directions to one another so that the fingers co-operate to carry birds between the two rotors and deposit them on the conveyor belt. In another embodiment, a third pick-up rotor is arranged in front of and co-operating with the other two rotors in a triangular formation and the conveyor belt deposits the birds on a turntable at the rear of the harvester. In this latter case, the support frame for the conveyor belt is preferably able to scan back and forth around an arc to accelerate the harvesting opera- tion and the third rotor is rotated in the direction of the scan.
