Referring back to phillips, the size (which I should have mentioned) suggests Hen of the woods - it was approx 40cm across... Thanks guys! |

Sorry to drag this up again Lauriek, but it looks like Laetiporus Sulphureus - Chicken of the Woods as Dan pointed out. Hen, in my experience is structured in a different way. This is shelved, as is Chicken of the Woods.

Don't be sorry Nick, please do correct me if I get it wrong! I was purely going by the pictures in Phillips, plus the fact the only Chicken of the Woods I ever saw was a young individual bracket... Thanks for the help guys!! | | |
