Lounging lizards ready to rumble. Are these basilisk lizards? I'm going by the top crest on their heads, I usually see them as green.

WOW! Killer find. Agate Basin point perhaps? Where would that be? Sorry for the late reply, Agate Basin is a name of a point type. You's looks very similar. Are you sure the base is broken? I thought I could see evidence of knapping on the base.

How nice to be able to travel to China and explore the markets there.

Oh why can't I live near a place like that. Some nice Montana agates you found there.

Try oxalic acid powder so that you can control the strength of the solution.

Seems most T eggs are mud with an agate,opal, etc. core. I haven't tried it, but I imagine the exterior would grind away leaving only the hard core, if anything.

Thanks Tommy. Before too much longer we'd like to spend at least 6 months, possibly a lot longer, traveling throughout the western half of the country. I just retired and my bride is overdue to retire; now, what to do about all the cats (5 indoor/outdoor and another 5 strictly outdoors.) ?
