The paradigm for egg fossilization would have to be sudden burial in the right kind of high silicon slurry. Gradual burial and thousands of years of mineral exchange, blah blah blah seems so very unlikely.

Ever hear of lithopedion? Maybe this is like a petrified fetus, the eggs got permanently blocked during the creature's life, and were starting to fossilize long before she died.
