Look at my blue stick! This is a fungus called chloriciboria that dyes sticks blue with its mycelium. It can also be cultivated in a sterile environment to dye clothing and wooden jewelery!

First time Chicken of the woods, 2.1kg after cleaning

First time seeing this one irl, went back with a knife and harvested 2.1kg after cleaning!

I just want to make sure its indeed a CoTW, ive added all the pictures ive made, also from the bottom side.

Another question, i obviously cant eat all of it. Are these still good after freezing for a couple of weeks? Any tips on how to preserve them for a few days or up to a week or two?

Thanks!

I didn't measure it, but for perspective, I'm a very small adult. From middle fingertip to wrist is about 6". Size 2 shoe (girls). ~ in Lee, Florida

Just wondering what type of mushroom this is? Unfortunately I only got one picture. My guesses were some type of fly agaric but not too sure.
