        @Oaktavia cool looking, but pretty gross when you unexpectedly grab a handful of it lol. The texture was like wet gummy bears.

              That explains what I saw ---- there were big sections that had been cut off. I bet people cut some of it to eat.
              I just thought it looked like deformed Halloween candy corn.

                @dinobarnesberlin yes indeed, and there are no lookalikes that have that coloration. There is a mushroom known as jack o' lantern that is also orange but looks pretty different.

                  I found some chicken of the woods the other day, as well 🙂

                  It’s the coral tooth stuff that really gets me excited, though…. So tasty! Ollie’s good at spotting those ones 😉

                    @Oaktavia I guess I could go back and gather some of it, but I will just be content to let it be ---for now.
                    I have a buddy who is way more experienced in all of the edible varieties that are in the area.
                    But damned if I'm not curious to see what it tastes like.

                    @Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot dang!! all kinds of goodness in your neck of the woods from the looks of it.
                    Good eyes Ollie!

                      @dinobarnesberlin the chicken that you have in that photo is nice and thick. It usually is better that way for breaded or battered & fried COTW. I have had some thinner ones that are more like the photo @Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot posted that are still great but the thick ones are where it's at. IIRC they are different types of COTW...:"There are two species of chicken of the woods mushrooms: The Laetiporus cincinnatus, which has a creamy colored underside, and Laetiporus sulphureus, which has a yellowish appearance and is also known as the 'Sulfur Shelf.'" - source
