Never heard of such a thing Tim!

My parents had White Leghorn laying hens and if one got a little sick, the rest would literally peck it to death!

Sometimes they would eat eggs too.

My dad would usually clip part of the top beak and that would stop the pecking!

This thing is really ingenious!

I have a neighbor that sells pheasant hunts on his land and raises the birds, they use little (I think) leather blinders on all the roosters.  Can't say it's too sporty but they sure helped out the pheasant population around them with their buisness.  :)

  The tv show "Storage Wars" just hade an episode that featured these "chicken glasses". Supposedly, they were made in the 40's and are not many now left. Appraiser said they were worth a few hundred dollars a pair (not being an appraiser, I doubt it).

That was a trick ! If you would of put a penny or dime next to it it would of rattled my brain, we used alot of them when I was a kid  ;D When I first looked at the picture it looked like something big made from cast iron, guess the jokes on me  :D. All the one we ever used was just a plain unpainted steel.

I had a friend in High School who lived on a turkey farm.
I helped them one week end  put something similar on the turkeys but were rose colored and transparent to prevent the pecking.

Tom A. has it right. It goes on chickens' beak to stop them from pecking. Those little prongs on the inside fit in the breathe holes on the bird's beak. Put many of those on in my teenage years working on a chicken farm.
