Pair of Unhatched Oviraptor Eggs. These two complete Oviraptor eggs are 70-80-million-years-old from the Gobi desert and measure 6½ x 3" and 6¼ x 3", belonging to the largest of the two Oviraptor species called Citipati. Citipati eggs are ratite in texture and have a very thin shell, making it rare to find them complete. This quality pair of eggs has been compressed a little with excellent texture and about 90% original shell on one egg and 75% shell on the other egg. The shell is a medium gray color with a small section of reddish brown matrix connecting the two eggs. Estimate Value $2,000 - 2,750
