Great Horned Owl Egg

KO-429 $31.00

(Acrylic stand included)

The name of the great horned owl is inspired by the tufts above its ears. It is found in a wide variety of habitats, more than any other owl. It will nest in tree cavities, an old hawk's nest, buildings and forks in cactus. The female usually lays 2-3 eggs. As this owl's diet consists mostly of mammals, including skunks, its nest may be smelly. In addition to mammals, it will also eat other birds. View our North American Bird Egg Collection.

As with all Bone Clones® products, only the finest casting materials are used to cast our North American bird egg series. Our expert artists paint each with meticulous care to match the eggs that were used in the casting process. Each egg is hand painted with permanent dyes and sealed with a resistant coating that makes it ideal for handling, study, teaching, as well as for display.

Owl eggs are naturally white, but over time can appear darker in color due to their time in the nest. Our owl eggs are painted to match the original specimens as we received them, which is more tan in color. If you require your owl egg to be painted white to match a fresh egg, please let us know in the comment section during checkout, or contact us soon after you've placed your order. We'd be happy to accommodate this request.
