Bill Hick Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 I found this on a golf course in MA. It is so symmetrical and resembles other seemingly legitimate eggs here. The continuity of the surface and lack of "inclusions" make it hard for me to think it's a rock. Any thoughts ? I can send better pictures to those who may care..... Thanks. -Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caldigger Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Looks like a well traveled river rock, sorry not seeing egg here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ynot Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Welcome to TFF! I agree with Caldigger, it is a stream tumbled rock and not an egg. Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys." Will Rogers said: " Some of them didn't spring far enough." My Fossil collection - My Mineral collection My favorite thread on TFF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 I see no eggshell texture. There have been no recorded finds of dinosaur eggs in the Deerfield and Hartford Basins, of the Newark Supergroup. The area along the Connecticut River valley is Jurassic in age, and was mostly a seasonal fresh water lake. Dinosaur material, other than footprints, (bones, teeth, etc.) is quite rare to find in these areas. I agree that this is a water worn cobble.

Bguild Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Agreed, this is just a suggestive rock. No sign of eggshell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
