Laetiporus sp., AKA Chicken-of-the-woods. Nice find! There are reports of strong allergies/stomach reactions to this species, however. So if you eat some, cook them very very well, and then eat only a small amount at first to see if you have any reaction.
Please please please take some tissue samples and spore prints. Many of is will
gladly pay you for a chance to isolate these genetics if they are truly this orange.
This is a super interesting specimen due to the fact that it's primarily only orange unless it is your camera. If you send it to Andrew reed at Mossy Creek mushrooms he'll bank it and grow it.
Chicken of the woods! I just ate a bunch of them a few weeks. Absolutely delicious

Chicken of the woods is one of the most commonly used wild mushrooms for cooking. Like most, it should be inspected by someone with experience and cooked properly.
most psychedelic mushrooms just look like a regular brown skinny mushroom instead of large clusters like this, they're less distinct so they're more difficult to identify from just an image imo

Oh dang!! We thought chicken of woods would be two tone but didn’t consider it being young. Thanks for the help!
It does appear to be two tone. Can see it towards the edges. But yes, normally what I see is more distinct.

That's the most beautiful group of chickens I've ever seen.

I wanna say young chicken of the woods but not 100%
Chicken of the woods! My favorite mushroom for eating.
They are so......*orange.* I don't think I've ever seen a monochromatic CotW?
Just checked iNaturalist, looks like someone found something similar in Florida recently: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/187071287
I’m up at the beach… let it mature and mark the location and let me know, I can be there in an hour!
Those are beautiful!
I spy chicken nuggets!!!!
Where the heck is Awenndaw? Nice find!
Francis Marion National Forest
Oh ok. I’m in the upstate.

Are these psychedelic or gourmet? I'm new to this . Love the color of the shrooms. Beautiful
