I was looking for an answer that could not be drudged up anywhere I could find. Inexperienced, and a little ignorant with regards to such topics as I might be I still believe this might be a fossilized egg, or not...can you ID the rock I have? Please?

No sign of eggshell texture. 

It's a fractured chert nodule.

Agree with what was said above.

 

Don't take your fossils in the hand to make your photos, it accentuates the blur of moving and the hands aren't a good indication of measurement, there are all sizes !

In addition to the origin and age of the terrain in which the fossils are found, size is also important for proper identification. I invite you to read my last link in my signature. If you don’t have a rule, print the document I made available and put your fossils on it before making your photos, making sure to leave a box with the apparent size (pedagogical message) ;)
