There is no "cotton chopper". There is a cotton picker and it was developed in the early 1900's. Before that cotton was hand picked. Cotton grows on a bush type plant that forms flowers that becomes cotton bolls. To pick the cotton the plant has to be killed and then the cotton can be gotten off the boll because it is open. This is not easy because the raw cotton is tough to work with and very dense. The cotton picker goes through the field than pulls the cotton off the bolls. It takes several times to get all of the cotton. When cotton was hand picked it was put into bags until full.
It is known as a cotton ball with an "a" in ball. However, while still on the plant, is called a cotton boll, as in "boll weevil," an important pest of cotton before the advent of insecticides. After the plant blooms and gets pollinated ("squaring"), the flower closes up and produces its seeds surrounded by tough fibers to protect the seeds. It is these fibers that humans harvest and transform into cotton fabric.
