Helping a buddy of mine move about a ton of rock, so I grabbed a few pieces to cut...

Can't help with ID at all, but I'm curious to see what is inside all of those.

First piece resembles Lilypad jasper (from near Madras, Oregon). Second looks like the green Moss agate from the Ochocos northeast of Prineville. Last looks like a Priday thunderegg (can't recall the pit that produced those, but don't think those foliated shell eggs are being dug today).

I might have to hit Casey or Jason up for egg ID Found my note. Priday Pony Butte beds both on the Richardson Ranch and Lawson Ranch sides of Pony Butte. Last time I was down there, I didn't find any with the foliated shell on Richardson's side, though. But I didn't dig much as we'd already got our bucketload by the time we drove back there.
