Little Giant Restraining Cone — Medium Galvanized Steel Flat-Back for Easy Mounting & Cleaning

The Little Giant® Restraining Cone is a medium, heavy-gauge galvanized steel cone with a flat-back design that safely secures and supports birds up to 10 lbs for cleaning and processing while staying easy to mount and clean.

Built for small-scale farms and backyard poultry keepers, this medium restraining cone offers a durable, rust-resistant alternative to plastic cones. Its flat back lets you fasten the cone to walls, tables, or processing stations, while the hemmed edges and substantial gauge steel reduce wear and sharp edges. Designed specifically for layers, broilers, roasters and young turkeys up to about 10 pounds, it streamlines handling and cleanup without sacrificing structural strength.

How does the cone make processing birds easier?

The cone gently immobilizes the bird so routine tasks—scalding, plucking, bleeding, or eviscerating—can be done more efficiently and with less stress to the handler. Its shape keeps the bird in a consistent position and gives good access to the neck and vent areas.

• Stable restraint for quicker, safer processing
• Open top and tapered body for easy head positioning
• Flat back allows firm mounting to hold cone in place
• Hemmed edges protect handlers from cuts and the bird from abrasions

What makes the galvanized steel build important?

Galvanized steel resists rust and holds up to repeated exposure to water, heat, and cleaning agents, so the cone lasts longer than many untreated metal or plastic alternatives. The heavy-gauge construction also prevents dents and deformation during routine farm use or transport.

• Hot-dip or electro-galvanized finish for corrosion resistance
• Heavy-gauge steel maintains shape under load and repeated use
• Easy to scrub and sanitize between uses
• Less prone to cracking compared with brittle plastics

How do you install and maintain the Little Giant Restraining Cone?

The cone’s flat back simplifies mounting—bolt or screw it to a wall, table edge, or a dedicated processing frame for a secure setup. After use, wipe or hose down the cone and sanitize as needed; the smooth steel surface and hemmed rim reduce areas where debris can collect.

• Mount on vertical surfaces using standard hardware
• Rinse, brush, and apply farm-safe sanitizer for cleaning
• Inspect hemmed edges and mounting points periodically
• Store dry to maximize lifespan of galvanizing

Who is this for? The Little Giant® Restraining Cone (Medium) is made for backyard poultry enthusiasts, homestead processors, small farmers and anyone who processes birds up to roughly 10 pounds and wants a robust, low-maintenance restraining solution. If you need a product that mounts securely, stands up to frequent cleaning, and reduces handling time while prioritizing safe edges and reliable containment, this cone is a practical addition to your processing setup.
