caldigger Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 I think your "turtle" was a glob of mud or clay that has since eroded away. There seems to be something resembling a crinoid imprint on this piece though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClearLake Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 I am not seeing anything that looks like bone in it. Definitely some lines of different color, but hey look more like filled cracks to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caldigger Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 That's why I said a mud ball. They look like infilled cracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClearLake Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Yep, @caldigger I'm with you there. It sort of reminds me of a smashed potato or yam! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
