Cut a few eggs .............

Succor Creek T/E....

Ochs Pony Creek T/E.....

Nice cavity on this one....
Arnold Ranch T/E.....

Last but not least....(No ID yet)

Just cut a few more yesterday...

This egg broke in two on me,when I was taking the extra matrix off of it-so instead of tossing it,I cut it anyhow...(turned out great!
It broke the right way...(McDermitt egg)

Nice Succor egg........

Here is a rescue egg-it's pretty much trash,but I cleaned it up and cut it...(will give it to one of my Grandkids)..(Nice cavity)

It's like what the "HECK" is that!!!!! Me,I say "heck lets cut it anyhow"!!! (Mudball)

I'm thinking this is a Succor egg too...

Another rescue egg.......Looks like it was being worked on,than put to the side..I just shaved it to clean it up a bit-this also will go to one of my Grandkids...

McDermitt double egg...........

Another rescue egg...........It cut great..

Also another rescued egg........These eggs are scrap eggs and you only get one half...

A nice Succor egg..........Double

Just had a new friend PM me on F/B and wanted an egg cut..... I told him I would cut it for another egg in trade for cutting it...
He brought over seven eggs to be cut,they were so beautiful....................Would you believe he gave me a five gallon bucket of eggs!!!!!
Plus two halfs of the seven I cut for him.......
Told me,he loves the hunt,than looses interest after they get cut....Thanks Joe!!!!
