ABSTRACT:
A tray for shipping and displaying dressed poultry for sale is disclosed. The rear end wall of the tray forms an acute angle with the tray bottom and contains an aperture through which the ends of the legs of the poultry are inserted so as to prevent hocking (spreading of the legs). Preferably, a sunburst die pattern is cut around the aperture. The sunburst fingers prevent the legs from pulling away from the rear walls and lock the fowl in place. Also, preferably, a tail shield folds down from the top of the rear wall to cover the ends of the legs extending through the aperture. This prevents the legs from puncturing the plastic overwrap on the tray.
