Jugglerguy, I am pretty sure that 13 and 15 are the parts of red crazy lace that aren't lace. I'd bet money on it if I were a betting person.

I'm not really sure on an ID for #13 and 15. Up close they sort of resemble Eastern European agates without the banding. They look like they have little orb and stick things going on in them. I guess that could make them some kind of agate? They're handsome whatever they are. #8 really looked like a great lakes septarian to me too. Here's a link to a page with one at the bottom that has dark septums like your rock. agatelady.com/2017/12/22/mineral-of-the-month-december-2017-septarian-nodule/

Maybe RWA3006 could have a look at #8 and dispel my possible ID? Thanks in advance! I'm about 95% sure it's coprolite. Typical nuances of Southwestern USA, but could be from somewhere else. Holy CRAP! I had no idea.

I tumbled a batch of crazy lace from Kingsley North that had non-lacy parts to it. It didn't look exactly like this, but I see the similarity. Could be that this is from a different variety of crazy lace.

I really liked number 8. I wonder what it is? Someone on my YouTube channel thought is was a septarian. I didn’t think they had translucent cracks, but I don’t have any experience with them. I was going to suggest septarian too but I was too lazy to log in to YT and can't comment through my normal video viewer. My experience consists solely of buying some from the Rock Shed, which I have yet to tumble and watching a video from MommaGem where she tumbled some but i think the fact that it held up well with all those harder rocks weighs against "septarian" too. (septarian is one of my favs though, so I suppose I've looked at a lot of pictures online! ;-)
