I was browsing a pet shop back in the late 90's and at the counter they had a multitude of things for sale. I noticed they had some small coloured glass eggs and I had assumed they were fake eggs that bird fanciers use to persuade hatching... or something along those lines.
But then I started thinking, well why on earth does the bird need them all colourful and pretty? Shouldn't they be white glass? To this day I don't know why and I've never, ever seen them since.... AND the shop vanished over 5 years ago, which was a shame because I bought all my pet supplies there. I ended up buying seven of them for 50 cents each but gosh I wish I had bought more;
