Complete noob wanting general identification/information/comments?
Baybeh posted a topic in Fossil ID
So I'm sure nothing here is anything great or spectacular, I just decided I want to know a little about these things I've collected, mostly in my/friends backyards in DFW area. They are all on 12" pavers for size reference. I have a few bonus pieces of fossilized wood (and I'm not sure about the completely black pieces.. but very curious), and a couple of rocks thrown in for extra lol- 5 replies

I've stumbled upon several hundreds of these fossils of I believe limestone formation. I really don't know a whole lot about fossils. Just what I've been reading online. Can I get a time period of what y'all think these may be from. Found in East Texas.

Found this tooth/spike/claw/antler in Van Zandt county Texas. It was found amongst petrified wood similar in color. The piece is of similar feel and weight as petrified wood. The petrified wood context is of the Wilcox Group (Eocene). Attached are pictures for identification. Anyone have any idea what this is?

I've made two posts recently with requests to help id white rocks that were suggested as possibly bivalve. I've been finding rocks like these in the same places as the white ones. They caught my eye because they looked like they had been painted. Up close, the one in posting has a lot going on, but different than the others. It may just be a rock. Help is greatly appreciated

I'm quite new to the forum and not entirely sure whether to I'm posting in the right place or in the right way, but hopefully this will be well received. On what I believe to be the Catahoula formation (this may be wrong, I'm quite an amateur still), on the border between Jasper and Sabine county in deep east Texas, on the bank of a sandy creek, we found what I believe to be the root ball of a tree, but I still need an ID. Furthermore, while petrified wood is commonplace in east Texas, I've never seen anything like this. Is it a unique find? Here are some pictures below: And some closer pictures, for detail: On this next picture, the angle is a top view of what seems to be part of the "broken off" part - my hunch is that those little dots are where the tubes of xylum in the plant fossilized. and one last photo of some more detail on the side of the fossil: I'll gladly eat up any and all information that anyone can provide, whether it be an ID, age, unique features, fun facts, etc.! Hopefully I put this in the right place!
