Miocene_Mason Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Nice Keichousaurus! Looks real as well, which is more than can be said for most! “...whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been and are being evolved.” ~ Charles Darwin Happy hunting, Mason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shellseeker Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Sweet Matt, It looks gorgeous!!!. Tell me what I am looking at -- where did it come from, how old... Unfortunately for me, my fossils are of a different type...

Matt_Digz Posted August 10, 2017 Author Share Posted August 10, 2017 Shellseeker it is a Keichousaurus. It came from china. It wasn't a cheap buy. Its 100% real. I believe its around 300 million years old if my research is correct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FossilDudeCO Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 NIce keichosaur! Congrats on an awesome gift! Hopefully you plan to keep her around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macrophyseter Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Awesome gift! Even better that its real too, considering how many fake keichosaurs there are out there. Btw, I think it would look even cooler it you framed it with a casing exactly the size of that slab If you're a fossil nut from Palos Verdes, San Pedro, Redondo Beach, or Torrance, feel free to shoot me a PM!

Wrangellian Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Nice gift... Instead of the cotton balls, you could go to a fabric store and buy a chunk of soft cloth, there are various types and I think colors, you have to look around and think about what type would look best - and lay it in the back of the frame for a more uniform background.
