Bird-Man Posted September 24, 2018 Report Share Posted September 24, 2018 I found a decent flush of chickens I a tree last year and this year I have been visiting it regularly to see if it will produce this year. Do they produce every year or is it hit and miss, in your experience? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mushroom Whisperer Posted September 24, 2018 Report Share Posted September 24, 2018 It can be hit and miss, in this area. Sometimes 3 years out of 5, sometimes less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evan Posted September 25, 2018 Report Share Posted September 25, 2018 They can continually produce depending on the conditions. But, I believe, eventually the wood will break down too far and not be capable of supporting b the fungus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staveshaver Posted September 27, 2018 Report Share Posted September 27, 2018 Hit or miss here... like the Whisperer said, about 3 out of 5 if I'm lucky. Got a major flush going on right now on a tree that produced 40+ lbs two years ago... nothing at all last year, zero. Another tree that produced HEAVY in 2016 hasn't shown anything since. Rain and timing is good this year... I'm watching it closely.. Personally, I'm glad they(and so many others) don't produce every year like clockwork at the same place, otherwise I wouldn't have to HUNT them, and I probably would lose interest. I'm finding that the hunt is mostly why I do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
