Need help identifying my fossils

Recommended Posts

Hello, 3 days ago I was out on the farm looking for indian artifacts. I started digging and immediately started finding fossil after fossile. I have buckets full of all kinds and have no clue what they are. I found them off the snake River 5 miles or so on the Idaho oregon border. I have cleaned some up, and I hope the pictures show what you need to identify them. It's been exciting findings them.

I have a bunch more than whats pictured, but this will be a good start.Thanks for the help.

You have a good eye for shapes. The second one down in the top photo would make a fine pterosaur humerus, and the bottom one here a fair coracoid. Unfortunately the texture is wrong, and the shape would need to be perfect to consider them as natural casts. I have to agree that these all look like just rocks.

No fossils shown here, unfortunately.  :(

Thank you all for your replies,  I had 1 more pic I will run by you guys. I'm guessing it's just rock to but thought I should check.
