The Gently Plucked Chicken Company is a chicken processing plant located in New York City, appearing in Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
History[]
The Gently Plucked building is owned by an individual named "Bob", who lends it to the Purple Dragons as a temporary headquarters. It is not known if Bob realizes what activities the occupants are involved in.
The Dragons holed up in this venue in between theft excursions, and one of the co-underbosses, Hun, became attached to the chickens there. Bob had told them that the plant was for the humane housing of chickens, but despite Hun's belief in his statement, this was obviously not true.
One day, the Dragons were committing a robbery by the piers, when two of them pulled Raphael out of the water. They took him back to Gently Plucked, where he was held captive so that their leader, Kitsune, could assess him for sale. Mechazoid 02, which had been stalking Raph, utilized parts out of the building's power box to rebuild itself and crashed through the skylight. The Dragons and Raph fought it off, with it eventually meeting its (at the time) assumed demise at the hands of Angel, using the chicken plucking machine to drill into its body. The Mechazoid later used the plucker itself as a new chassis.
With the building badly damaged during the fight, Hun let the chickens free, although one of them was run over by a car immediately afterward. Raph Thinks It Through
