Q: What dino had the biggest egg? -Rhysg9

A: It’s hard to say what dinosaur eggs belonged to a certain species unless other fossils are recovered from the nesting site, but most paleontologists assume they came from sauropods. The largest dinosaur egg ever found (pictured above) came from China and measures 43cm (16.9in) by 14.5cm (5.7in). Regular sauropod eggs are about 48 times bigger than a chicken’s.

The first recorded discovery of dinosaur eggs comes from France in 1859. Since then, important finds have been made in at least 220 different localities around the world.
