Possible Chicken Of the Woods
I have a very large fallen oak tree on my land that has been there for decades and I have yet to ever find any Chicken of the Woods on it, just the very thin and small white polypores and a very odd white mass of mycelium that has never grown into anything (as seen in the picture).
But today I decided to closely inspect the log and inside of the hollowed out part i found a bunch of old dried up mystery polypores and it does almost look like CotW so i dug them out with a stick and placed them in various spots around the log as it seemed like there was plenty if spores still hanging onto it but i wonder if those spores would even still be viable or if was even spores to begin with.
