Hey everyone. Thanks for stopping by and watching me and my sis do something we really enjoy. Fossil hunting has been something I have done here and there.
I have decided to kind of focus on one group of fossils. That is the Cephalopod family group of ammonites. They have to be the coolest looking fossil there is. So many shapes, sizes, textures. I currently have close to 90 different species from around the world. From smaller than a dime to 17 inches in diameter.
If you need any fossils prepping reach out to Kris at his website globalpaleoservice.wixsite.com/home or email globalpaleoservices@gmail.com. Not only awesome at prepping but he is a great guy. Let him know I mentioned contacting him.
If you have a good place to go fossil hunt and willing to share I am always looking for new areas. If you have an ammonite you don't want or would like to consider selling, reach out.
Lets go find some fossils!

Texas Fossil Hunting - 90 Plus Fossils
Hey everyone! Another great day out with Dudette and Dudette 2. Yes, I had two of my sisters with me this morning. Great hunt! This will probably be my last full video. I might make a short here and there if we find anything really cool. We will still take people out whenever we can. No cost as always. Just reached out.
I have enjoyed sharing my videos. Found some great friends to enjoy fossil hunting with. Thank you to everyone who has watched and subscribe. It was my pleasure sharing my passion for fossils with you.

I would love to go with ya some time soon. I even have a battery powered rotary hammer to get to those really tough ones. It would be a good video as well to add to my channel with a shout out to yours of course lol
First, great name. 👍 Thanks for watching. You can email me at geor682003@gmail.com and I will send out when we are planning to go.
I'd like to know what it is too. Too bad you didn't include that in this video because you had enough time to do that!
Here you go. Internal mold of Volutomorpha aff. Conradi. :)
Did it wash down from the Missoula flood?
Nope, it is actually from the cretaceous formation that gives us such a variety of fossils in that river.
Wow! Never seen a gastropod that big. Nice find!
Thanks Jean!
I always wanted to hunt and find dinosaur teeth
Live in Texas? North Texas the best place to go is the NSR.
Hello I am new to fossil hunting and I am wondering what are some good locations
Also I live in Texas
Hi Jimmy. Tecas is a big place. Depends on where. North Texas there are alot of places. South, like near SA, Bandera, TX has some good areas.
Ok thank you
Your welcome. Glad to help. In N Texas I do take groups out. Haven't done much this year but will soon.
One last question are whiskey bridge and north sulphur river any good?
Very cool!!!
Thanks
Wow ❤
Awesome find!!!
Thanks Sis!
Awesome. I would keep it as is and not clean it up. 😉
It will stay that way. Just did a light scrub with a soft toothbrush to clean the dirt off. Thanks for watching!
Very cool!!!
Isn't it though! Thanks Jean
Whats ur email?

It looks like white puffball mushrooms but they got mushed into an odd shape. That's my best guess.
Hummm... maybe. It's hard to see in the video, but there are fuzzy. White puffballs don't have that, do they?
@@northtexasfossildude Not a puffball then... IDK, but don't eat it lol
Lol...I did think it would be a good meal if edible.
Yeah, I don't think I'd give that one a go until I was 100% sure on it, but that was my thought too and why I said don't eat it :P
Very cool!
They are. Very strange
I'm sad to see you go. I'm in Johnson county and am Finding a lot of cool things, 2 shark verts and a shark tooth and some other fossils too, but I what county is this? That looks very Grayson marl/mainstreet limestoney!!!
I love this!!!
Thanks for watching. Seem you find some cool stuff! This all was found in the ben Brook Lake area. Rockd has it as the Goodland limestone in the spot with all the smaller echnoids.
Sorry to see you go. I really have enjoyed watching your videos. They have encouraged me to visit north Texas myself!
You should!
If I'm ever in the area I'll get in touch! Thanks!
So sorry to see these stop, but I understand it takes a lot of work and effort to make these. My "Echinoid Queen" daughter and I have loved watching them all!
Thanks for watching the videos. Yes, she is the queen of echnoids.
Sorry to hear your not making anymore videos George,it’s been fun going on these hunts with you.Cheers Bud 👍
Hey, Dave. Thank you for all the support.
@@northtexasfossildude Pleasure Bud 👍
You find all kinda great stuff wish I lived closer so I could go hunting with you
Thanks! Depending on where you are, there might be cool stuff there.
@@northtexasfossildude I an in middle Tennessee I find small things nothing like you
Ugh....no fairs ...but I understand....between me you and UA-cam... they're losing another knowledgeable show..👍♠️keep on keeping on.
Thanks for the compliment. I might switch to Rumble for a few videos to see how that works out.
@@northtexasfossildude I'll keep an eye out👍👀
Great fossil hunt!!!
Thanks Jean!
Man that's sad that you are not going to post anymore I've watched all your videos and they are great really sad to hear. But I'm from central Texas and maybe we could get together for a hunt sometime that would be cool
Thanks for watching. I really do appreciate it. What part of Central? Lol I am planning a trip to a creek in Waco in a couple of weeks. All the rain exposed new matrix.
@@northtexasfossildude you're welcome you still going to post shorts or just nothing just wondering and it's more west central but I'm actually planning a trip around July 14 my birthday to try and go to the NSR
I might do some shorts here and there. Plan on a lot of liquids and take breaks if you go the NSR then. It's going to be extremely hot. Even hotter on the river bed.
@@northtexasfossildude that's good to hear and yea for sure this will be the third year in a row going there on my birthday
Very nice Tetragramma!!!!
Yes, Dudette found another killer fossil.
Wow such a nice collection that deserves a sub
Thanks Tottenhamfan!
Good to see ya out!
Thanks! It was nice.
Love the verts George,nice to have a new video 👍
Thanks Dave. It was good to be out.
Great, very interesting and exciting 👍🏼👍🏼
Great finds!
Thanks Joseph.
We have a male roughly the same size. Fun pets!
They really are. Stubborn sometimes!
North Texas Fossil Dude, I enjoy your content a lot, wanna be friends?
that's pretty cool you found out that was a whistle
Subscribed instantly...I've lived in Austin my whole life 41 this month....!!!!iiii Awesome channel... Ive found a piece of petrified wood 21lbs..& The Bastrop museum has the woolly mammoth skull i found as a kid six-seven... Website
No way! You found the mammoth skull! How awesome is that! Glad to have you as a subscriber.
@@northtexasfossildude family donated it to the Bastrop museum.... I really wish I would have kept it..!!!
I know I would of had a hard time letting it go
You should come over to Primrose, tx. I have been finding shark teeth and other nice fossils
ThNka for the recommendation. I'll have to look at that area. Thanks for watching!
I came across your channel and it’s amazing. I saw where you said you take people out with and my wife and I would love to join you. Are there set dates you do this on? We are actually in Dallas in a couple of weeks Cheers Alan
Hi Alan. Just email me at geor682003@gmail.com. I'll email you when we go out. We normally go out on Saturday or Sunday mornings. Thanks for watching. George
Nice catch 😊
Trash fish
I always found that comment interesting. Most of the world eats some form of carp in one species or another. Cooked right it is rather good.
Nice!!
When do they flood the area would like to take my grandboys
Sorry for the late response. This didn't show on my phone. Construction ends in 2026 of the dam. Not sure of the date when they will start filling it. So there is still time! Thanks fore watching.
You guys struggle way too hard with hands and other rocks. Get an Estwing rock pick.
Thanks for watching. I'll look into getting one. Thanks for the suggestion
Oh my stars! Just found your channel and subscribed, Thank you Jesus! Your specimens are stunning. I saw another little flat one similar to yours. She said it was related, but a different species. Will see if I can track that video down. What fun!🎉🎊I would absolutely love to go with you &Dudette in 4-6 weeks. Does it cost? What all would I need to bring. I am in east Texas. Where about are you guys located? What kind of fossils do you gather? Let me know what info you need! You both are such blessings to us!🙏🙌🌻🤗🔊
Hey, thanks for watching. Just message me at geor682003@gmail.com. No charge at all. Just enjoy sharing my passion for fossils.
How many fossils do you have in your collection?
Hey Dude & Dudette. I like the different colors on each one.
Great video George. Keep me and Adelyn on your list! We love going out with you and Dudette.
What city are you in? We are in Garland. Our 9 year old aspiring Paleontologist wants to find an ammonite!
I live in Royse City, but we hunt a lot west and north of Fort Worth.
Lots of great finds George ❤
Thanks Dave!
That echinoid is cool. Normally I would assume "Goniophorus" given your proximity to the Duck Creek Formation stuff but it looks more like a baby Cidarid type like a "Phyllacanthus". Clean it up and put in the next video. Also post a pic to Dallas Paleo.
How much are ammonites usually sold for? Like average per kg?
Depends on the species and quality. Not really a weight price. More common and easy to prep are cheaper. Thanks for watching!
I think the actual "scientific area" is closed now.
It is. I called to double check last week. Now there is an are below the dam I am going to check.
Great job George 👌HNY to you and Dudette 🥂
Looks great!
