Ultimate Egg Crate - Theropod and Oviraptorid Egg and Claw Casts
The ultimate experience in Dinosaur Eggs, including theropod and oviraptorid egg casts and claw casts from Anzu and Ornithomimus. Meet "Mimi!"

The claw is a cast of Anzu, the largest North American oviraptorosaurid dinosaur. Though we haven't, yet, found its eggs we know its
