Hello Funguys !
Does anyone know if this is Chicken/Hen of the woods? Is this a type of tree on which they commonly grow? It had branches twining all over.

Regards Dd

They're a decent edible, I have some in the fridge now I need to use up. But, they aren't really that flavorful, and are better when used to bulk up dishes, they absorb flavors well, so some chicken flavored bouillon is good to use with them.
