Fun Facts About Dinosaur Eggshells
Most dinosaur eggs had a hard shell, a lot like chicken eggs. The shell had tiny holes that let the baby inside breathe. Amazingly, even the giant long-necked dinosaurs hatched from eggs only about the size of a grapefruit. That means the babies were tiny and had lots of growing to do. Scientists have found lots of fossil eggshell pieces – sometimes even whole nests full of shells.
