Chicken of the woods, not hen. Still a good edible! cook thoroughly and try to only take the softer outer edges, the inner portion is pretty tough to chew..

That's what I thought, although mixed up the names. Can you clone this and grow it on sawdust?

This would be a good place to ask that question, if no one here were to chime in

Mrcloudy, what's the name of the coral-type fungus in your signature? It looks very meaty, is it a good edible?

Ganoderma sessile, a red reishi species, it is medicinal rather than edible.
