Forty-three dinosaur eggs uncovered in Heyuan, China

Quite a find! They look like sauropod eggs to me, but I'm no "egg-spert"

Whoa! Cool!

These are sauropods for sure
Wonder what species it is

[amargasaurus cazaui]

Hard to tell from the photographs themselves, as not much is shown for scale but the article states a size of 10-12 cm......at the larger size, that is 4.72 inches, a tad small for sauropod eggs likely. Given the size and the shape it would seem more likely they are probably segnosaur eggs, or could be hadrosaurid....My own Hadrosaur egg is roughly that long ...slightly larger.
   What I find interesting is the area itself, as Guamdong district is generally where the oviraptorid eggs tend to originate from, or at least those that came to market that were stated as such, were generally from Guamdong district. The sauropod and Hadrosaur egg I have originate from Henan province, in the Xixia basin, so that seems suggestive these might well be segnosaur eggs.

Awesome...only in China

china? it could be a shunosaurus or mamenchisaurus

[amargasaurus cazaui]

china? it could be a shunosaurus or mamenchisaurus

Again given the size, I doubt heavily they are sauropod eggs ...unless a very small species
