Right On!!! First chickens these are the conifer loving ones with the white pores? Still great I ate one of those too. I say as long as you plan to eat it and didnt think anyone else was scoping it, its yours! You found it right!? Iv its true and things are meant to be then you were meant to eat that mushroom! Go for it brah! Like Samuel jackson says. Hows it taste motha fucka!??? I think they have the texture of chicken with a hint of lemon. But I bet your going to buffalo chicken it huh?

keep em in a paper bag in the fridge in your crisper. they might sweat a lot though regardless, so be prepared to get new paper bags if they get hella wet, you just need to check on them periodically. Mine kept for over three weeks btw.

chickens that grow on eucalyptus on the west coast/australia have that reputation if i am not mistaken? the gi upset
either way those look dry to me, did you find the texture to be more fillet mignon or dryish like bike tires?

They were a little on the dry side I believe but not too bad at all. Ill definitely try them again.... they were found in a hole in a living oak tree, its been very dry here the past month or so... a moderate rain one day every week and a halfish... I think their was water in the hole in the tree so it stayed around a little longer I'm assuming...yea sketch, these were very small compared to those... only 5 in across at most for the bigger ones....

HEY SKETCH...WE GOT A PUFFBALL I.D. lol.... I believe its a giant puffball, and if you cut it in half and its ALL white inside, I believe its good.... but if you want a more experienced opinion, go into the "Mushroom Hunting and Identification" and at the top right you will see "make a post" in bold.... fill one of those out because not too many people will see this one...

I believe its a giant puffball, and if you cut it in half and its ALL white inside, I believe its good.... but if you want a more experienced opinion, go into the "Mushroom Hunting and Identification" and at the top right you will see "make a post" in bold.... fill one of those out because not too many people will see this one...
Hmmm cut it in half with a non serrated knife and then post pics. I find these in the same kind of location u described lighthouse09. If its white inside and not yellow then it could be edible. Im no expert by any means but I would say it is maybe Calvatea gigantea. Funny pic with the sunglasses! Strange i never thought to do that. One Cool puffball! Lol. Future so bright its gotta wear shades. I would do like art said.
