May not be worth a million but could be a million years old, ive seen examples of dinosaur droppings that match the size and the look exactly. Now thats a find.

Don't think it's coprolite, maybe an egg. See Dino eggs on google images. Similar couple of pics. Now, your other rock pics DO look like Dino poo-poo. See them on coprolite on google images. Truthfully, either one is possible on the Paluxy or maybe the Brazos...

I would look to see if there are any companies nearby that will do an xray for you. It does appear to be similar to some eggs and certainly worth the effort. Perhaps even a college nearby that could assist with ID?

This is a concretion or a pebble cracked up by earth;s forces inside the ground and then the pieces were reunited by liquid minerals leached into the cracks over time and then solidifying.
It's shape is too irregular to be a fossil egg of any kind and it does not show the distinct surface texture of fossil eggs.

Nice reticulated pattern though...

No I don't think this is a geode...
But if it is cut-up and hollow with some sort of crystalls inside I'll take that statement back

I'm back and tried to google septarian geode. Plenty of photos but they have all been cut and polished and none showing the outer surface. Can't people just leave things looking natural. They are however attractive when cut and polished. Try googling it and see.

The big piece of poo is covered in ice and mud.But i have a smaller Pseudo coprolite that will explain how they come about .The poo gets covered by mud and as it drys it makes a cast of the poo itself.then mud fills the cavity and hardens.After time it washes out and that gives you a pseudo coprolite.Another words it is a mud shape of the poo.We find these all the time.I am not saying that is what you have.I am just giving you another avenue for thought ....Osage pseudo.webp
