Description: Name: Dendroolithus Hadrosaur Egg Age: Cretaceous Formation: Kaoguo Formation Location: Xixia Basin, Henan Province, China Size: Egg is 6 inches across!This is a GUARANTEED REAL fossilized dinosaur egg from a Hadrosaur dinosaur. Most ''duck-billed'' dinosaurs laid their eggs in nests of a dozen or more eggs. Usually, hatching and scavenging damaged the nests, obliterating any trace of the eggs that remained. Occasionally, a few eggs survived predators and the elements, and eventually became fossils. Because of their delicate nature, intact eggs are very rare in the fossil record. Dinosaur eggs that retain their original shape and eggshell are some of the most collectible fossils in the world.This is a very rare example of a REAL UNHATCHED hadrosaur egg from the Cretaceous of China. This Dendroolithus egg was acquired in the 1990's at the Tucson Fossil Show and put in storage until now. This distinct egg is free of matrix and displays well from all angles. The impressive egg is very detailed and has retained its textbook round shape (some compression to the egg from the pressures of fossilization). Most of the thick eggshell is still intact on both sides of the egg (see photos). And, again, this egg is unhatched - there may be embryonic remains preserved inside the egg! This is a very collectible example of a large, unhatched hadrosaur egg with great egg shape intact - a REAL specimen for your collection, to display in your home or office, or for a unique gift for the person who has everything.A Certificate of Authenticity from EXTINCTIONS.com is included with this specimen. Insurance is included in the cost of shipping.Note: International customers may have to pay a duty at Customs - every country's rules are different.
