What kind of fossils are in this piece?  It is riddled with jaw bones, rib bones, wing and leg bones. This weighs 3lb 4oz.    Any help would be grateful. Thank you

Typical piece of water-worn pebble of reef-debris or shallo-water conglomerate: gastropods, bivalves (several different cut-angles), coral-fragments and ?echinoid-fragments.

Additionally well-rounded rocks in the matrix, which are witness of a long way of transport or high water energy over al ong time....

What Pemphix said. Just to remind you, please give us information about stratigraphy and location each time you post your finds.
