Hi all! First post. I found these in my backyard, different spots, months apart, near Keller, TX. I've hesitated to post because I feel like this can't be possible and I must be missing something obvious as a novice fossil hunter. The rock in first 3 images was found 2/3 buried, including the part with the... leaves? It was getting dark, so I thought a leaf had stuck to it somehow. I tried scraping it against something to knock it off... then tried to pull it. When it didn't budge, I decided I'd deal with it inside. First pic is front after it had dried and had some dirt brushed off about a week later. Second is the back side, dried out. Third is front, just after bringing it inside. (Edited to correct descriptions. I somehow uploaded in reverse) The other one, in last 2 pics, was also found partially buried in my backyard, but many months ago and I can't remember specifics of depth. I'm always digging something up lol. Any ideas?

Hi guys, Brand new to the forum, but excited to be here. I found this in an area where water used to be very high all around me. In fact in a great deal of Thornton Co. In this case I am around the Niver trail. I am not so much the expert in geological terms so I will forego the effort in outlining this, but I will say the rocks around are very interesting. A lot of petrified wood, some form of molten rocks and evidence of extreme heat, has made for some interesting mineralization many of my finds. I look forward to your advice and have much more to show and hopefully learn from your feedback. Thanks for looking

My first post and not real good because of size limit on pictures. I have a youtube channel that is free with google cloud. I posted video there of what appears to be a mummfied dinosaur that looks a close to The Fossil book 1948 edition. I happened to come across this at a garage sell. Not the best video. I plan on redoing it.

I think it's a ceritops. The egg looks a bit squished. And the skin has a blue hue in places. I can see skin. Bone. The face, and eye socket. The right shoulder socket. Limbs. A placenta type skin covering separating the body from other parts of the egg. It's rubbery, or waxy feeling to the touch. The shell is fragile, but it was leathery what I found it. Somebody say to me. " oh my God, your rite. That's a ceritops fetus. In the egg. " . I bet there is DNA in this thing hey ,)
