Live in IA, found in river rock at a Dollar General. Looked like small fossilized potato. After examining it, , I put it in vinegar and water to clean and something started to appear. So I stopped, didn't want to damage what was inside or take off the remaining shell. I do know that river rock is shipped from NW states and Canada. Questions are, what type of egg? And is it a body fossil with embryo? 2 1/2 inches (L) × 1 1/2 inches (lg end) and 1 inch (small end) (W), 4 inches circumference.

I was referred to this page by fossil sites on Facebook. All I know about fossils, is, it's never an egg.. but quite a few folks thought this could be an egg. Found in western Arizona in a dry part of the desert, but near a series of washes where water flow occasional moves things around. 5cm x 3.5cm

Hello, Fellow Fossil Enthusiasts! I'm hoping that someone here might be able to help me in identifying these fossils, because I have hundreds of them in various stages of development, and in all of my research I have yet to find anything that remotely resembles what I've got! That is, until I found this forum - I've seen a few fossils identified here that were the very first that closely resembled what I've found, so my hope has been renewed that someone out there can help me out. I look forward to what new information might come my way! Scott

Hello everyone. Thanks for any comment or information. Looks like limestone. Not sure if its just a natural formation or some type of egg fossilized in the limestone or a complete petrified egg. Any input is appreciated. The item was found in a creek in Middle Tennessee near the Kentucky State Line. No measurements photographed but its an oval shape 4 1/2 inches long and 3 inches in diameter. It was split when it was found. The pieces were approximately 5 feet apart. Looks like it has been cracked for some time from the wear where it fits back together. When placing both sides toge

Real Hadrosaur Dino egg?
DatFossilBoy posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hey guys, Saw this egg online and was wondering if it was real. To me it has the right eggshell texture but something seems off. Labelled as hadrosaur without location but is probably from China. Thanks! -

I purchased this Hadrosaur Egg about 20 years ago from a reputable auction house. Back then I had no reason to question its authenticity and I doubt the auction house did either but times have changed and that blind trust has died. So, do you think it’s real or fake?

Is this fake oviraptor egg?
Rrunning posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
I am not experienced in this at all and just looking for a quick opinion. There is an engraved date on bottom(1947) , would that mean it’s manufactured or do collectors date eggs when discovered? Thanks!
