Thank you very much, that was a great concretion to open and to find them waiting on the inside to see the light of day after so long.

Congratulations. Wonderful find! I think I'd question my eyesight if I opened a concretion and found those eggs. Could they really be what I think they are? Very cool.

Start the day with a smile and get it over with.

Thanks- If I did not know that they existed in the MC fossil assemblage, I would have tossed it. I come across many concretions that look somewhat similar, but it is easy to tell the real deal.

Congratulations, Ralph! That is an awesome find! I am assuming that fossil amphibian eggs from Mazon Creek are extremely rare?
