The apparatus for removing the cut off feet of a fowl from an overhead conveyor shackle is mounted in a 180 DEG curve of the overhead conveyor and has a clamping wheel driven by the conveyor and cooperating with a stationary clamping bar for holding the shackle against any movement relative to the conveyor. The apparatus further has a plurality of unloading members, each supported by a slide block slidably mounted on vertical guides revolving with the clamping wheel. As a slide block is moved upwards the unloading member vertically wipes along the shackle held by the clamping wheel and the clamping bar, thereby tilting the feet out of the shackle.
