They look like chicken eggs but are made of glass, they used to put them in the nests in the chicken coops to encourage the hens to lay.At least I think thats right. they are solid glass, and I think they even came in a few light colors?

Thanks Frannie, will look into that, there were a lot of them around when I was little, so they must be someplace.

| I dont use my glass wggs under the hens, they are in a safe place in one of my antique cabinets. You can get plastic one to use under the hens, at feed stores. |

I see them all the time on ebay. They are lovely.
