Abstract: A support element for supporting fowl during storage and for use during cooking possesses an overall conical shape and comprises a first generally cylindrical section, a second conical tapered section and a third generally cylindrical section. The first section has a larger diameter than the third section. The first section merges into the second section to define a shoulder on which the fowl can rest by virtue of its bone structure.

Abstract: A die for processing a pliable plastic moldable material, particularly a plastic resin, has a cylindrical circular cross sectioned passage provided in the die wall. A marking device for the die comprises a ring body held space-fixed in the cylindrical circular cross sectioned passage of the die and a cylindrical circular cross sectioned central body received rotatable, coaxial, and stepwise lockable in the ring body. Both the front surface of the central body and the ring shaped front surface of the ring body form part of the embossing surfaces of the die. The rotatable front surface of the central body carries an indicating mark, while the space-fixed ring shaped front surface of the ring body adjoining the rotatable front surface of the central body is provided with a number of other marks, which can give the date or dates.
