    @troyunrau hmm. They look to me like wild rocks that have been fed enough to acclimatize them to people. Look how they’re happy sitting on the porch near a high-traffic area waiting. That’s probably where they get fed

    I’m a south Hampton institute of technology graduate of rockology. These are indeed pet rocks

      No, assuming the rock id is correct (pet rocks), then these were discovered in situ – hanging out outside a hotel.

    Those are actually wild rocks that have evolved a protective feature that looks like an eye to avoid predation. They’re still rather friendly, just not domesticated yet!
