Found in Cascadia/PNW in mid-August.

If it is indeed chicken of the woods (ie laetiporus), I'm curious as to which species.

Yes, they are definitely chicken of the woods. I'm not sure on species, but it's a good beginner mushroom because there aren't any dangerous look-a-likes or even many (any?) shelf mushrooms that are dangerous to eat.
