micropterus101 Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 Went out collecting last week and scored 12 crabs this is the biggest concretion which clearly shows orienatation.

micropterus101 Posted February 23, 2010 Author Share Posted February 23, 2010 (edited) Another one of the crabs I collected last week prepped out. I ussually start out with the worst concretions such as this one which I new didnt have both claws attached. The right claw is in the concretion but dis-articulated. I kinda saved a little clam that is on the right side. Edited February 23, 2010 by micropterus101 fossil crabs website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smaug Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 I hope it looks better after prepping When one tugs at a single thing in nature; he finds it is attached to the rest of the world. -- John Muir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont you wish they all came that way? and how is that raninid coming along? I did get your message, but with being so busy and still having company I didt call back. Sorry. Anyways, go get some more concs. RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
