The formation of fossil eggs begins with the original egg itself. Not all eggs that end up fossilizing experience the death of their embryo beforehand. Even eggs that successfully hatch can fossilize. In fact, not only is this possible it's actually common. Many fossil dinosaur eggs are preserved with their tops broken open by the escaping ...
Many ancient reptile groups are known from egg fossils including crocodilians, dinosaurs, and turtles. [3] Some ancient reptiles, like ichthyosaurs [8] and plesiosaurs [9] are known to have given live birth and are therefore not anticipated to have left behind egg fossils. Dinosaur eggs are among the most well known kind of fossil reptile eggs. [3]

A new discovery of pterosaur eggs & fossils from the Hamipterus tianshanensis species in China gives us our most complete look at the early flying reptiles.
The ornamentation is compactituberculate, i.e. the eggshell is covered with dome-like nodes formed by the tops of the shell units. [2] [1] The type specimen of Sphaerovum erbeni is too silicified to make out its microstructure, however many specimens of South American fossil eggs showing superficial similarities to Sphaerovum have been found.

A variety of pathological conditions afflicting eggs have been documented in the fossil record. Examples include eggshell of abnormal thickness and fossil eggs with multiple layers of eggshell. The identification of egg paleopathologies is complicated by the fact that even healthy eggs can be modified during or after fossilization.
Reptile egg fossils are the fossilized remains of eggs laid by reptiles. The fossil record of reptile eggs goes back at least as far as the Early Permian.However, since the earliest reptile eggs probably had soft shells with little preservation potential, reptilian eggs may go back significantly farther than their fossil record.
