Ludwigia Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 All I see between your written request are a bunch of numbers and letters and I have no interest whatsoever in clicking on them.

Rockwood Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 You should recheck the posting information above. The photos are not available to me at least, and I clicked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caldigger Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Yep, pictures are not working. Please post pictures directly to your post. Off Forum image sites tend to wander off and get lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Kmiecik Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Definitely not an egg, and if you go online to our favorite auction site, you can see what dinosaur eggs don't look like. 90% of them are fake.

marzru Posted June 1, 2019 Author Share Posted June 1, 2019 Measures 5”” x 5...Mother Nature is an artist...making rock balls look like a baby dinosaur...thanks for y’alls input! I really didn’t think is was an egg but you never know...appreciate everyone of you and this forum.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrangellian Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 It doesn't hurt to ask, because you never know, as you say. But dino eggs are pretty rare so it's no surprise to get a negative result. For future reference, if you've got a series of photos and the site won't let you put any more up because you've surpassed the size limit and you know your file is less than 4mb, just refresh your browser and try again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludwigia Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Looks like there could be part of an ammonite or nautilus in there. 1 Greetings from the Lake of Constance. Roger http://www.steinkern.de/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junction between to whorls ? It should noted that it's still very speculative though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
