Where in Perth? was it in bush, a road cutting...?

 

Doesn't look like an egg to me. The shape is a bit off and I see no evidence of eggshell, and as far as I know there aren't many fossils in Perth (I could be wrong)

Looks like an agate nodule with a hollow center (geode).

Is is so nearly spherical it looks like it could have been poured into a mold. Or be the remainder of something that had been in a ladle.  Is it very heavy?

[Miocene_Mason]

It looks man made to me as well (maybe compressed ash from a fire) if not then it's geological, not a fossil.

[ynot]

Agate nodules often form in the voids left by gas bubbles in volcanic rock, often giving them a ovoid or round shape.

This is part of one that was hollow.

Edit,: I agree with the next reply.

I agree. It is a femoral head from a large animal.

[RJB]

Reminds me of an end of a bone that has been in a fire?

yup, no doubt a femur head from a large mammal.
