    12:15 A WILDKYLE appeared.
    The WILDKYLE used Rock Smash.
    It's super effective!
    The crinoid stem has fainted.

    Where I-20 cuts through Irondale Ala. are lots of fossils in the cut. I kept my son’s elementary school (Irondale Elementary) stocked with them while he went there.

    I am glad you are getting the crinoid fever. They are underappreciated. Fun fact: in all echinoderms their individual plates are made of a single crystal of calcite. In modern times it only takes 1-3 hours for a crinoid to start falling apart after death. That helps you understand how special each of the attached part you find are.

    If I had known you were practically in my back yard, I could have sent you home with more local geodes, agates and fossils than you could carry. I’m a lifelong rockhound and at my age, that’s a lot of rocks!

      Hi! I’m not exactly sure where they were hunting in the video, but I do know that between my location in northeast Alabama and Huntsville along state highway 72, there are numerous roadcuts that have fossil bearing limestone embankments. Many of the side roads also have good roadcuts as well.

    Calyix are not as hard to find as you might think they just don't stand out often and are not articulated often. Look for volcano shapes(full calyx) and hexagon shapes(individual calyx plates).
