Hi,

 

Just curious of everyone's thoughts on this Oviraptor Egg?

 

Locality : East Asia (Cretaceous)

Species : Elongatoolithidae

 

That's about all the information I have from the seller along with some pictures. He states that the egg is 100% genuine and if proven otherwise there will be a full refund. Some glue was used to stabilize the shell.

 

Thanks

Looks good to me, but I would wait until the "eggsperts" get a chance to look at it like @Troodon

Egg looks beautiful and very detailed.  Its good that glue was used to stabilize the eggshell.  Looks like an Elongatoolithidae egg.

The egg looks genuine to me.  Prepped with sand blaster.  It seems the egg is from Jiangxi Province.
