What kind of Dinosaur Eggs??


BruceCouch

Recommended Posts

While prospecting for gold in Placerville, California on Weber Creek in a deep hole I found two eggs a dino bone fragment, which I sold to a local store and a seed grinding tool. The store owner also sold dino poop that he found in the area. Once I presented the eggs to him he pulls out a spray bottle of water lightly misted the eggs and said they were tacky. He said thats a sign of calcium. He still didnt know what species they were. The eggs easily fit in my hand. Is there anyone who can help with the possible I'd of these eggs? Thank you for your time.

Welcome to the Forum.

These do not look like fossil eggs to me, rather they look like concretions.

I see no eggshell texture, and the outside looks too thick to be eggshell.  :unsure:

 

As far as I know, no dinosaur eggs have ever been found in California.

 

 

Please read through this topic, written by a member of ours who studies fossil eggs.  ;)
