Just wish I had found it! I'm teaching a friend to flint knap. He was hunting flint in Misouri and picked this up. He brought it over and said "Is this flint?". Uh, NO! He's not so much into fossil collecting so he gave it to me.

It's a fossilized egg. I don't have the resources or knowledge to determine it's age or species. There aren't many archeologists or paleontologists around the Red River!

I sent an email with a few pics to the Paleontology Society asking them if they could recommend someone to help. I contacted them once before with a fossil and they told me what it was. And it only took a month for a reply! whistle

Actually I think UNT has a very good paleontology department.
