I was walking a dog just this evening and we stopped by a stable to see the 'big dogs'. These two mushrooms were found in an area where there is drain-off from a huge pile of discarded horse poo and shavings. Spore prints are in the works as I type.
To answer Anno's key questions:
a. "Habitat (where and what does it grow on)" - growing out of a grassy area after a few days of showers. Located near horse stables. High humidity.
b. "Characteristics of the gills (color, attached/not, gills/pores, etc)" - Dark brown to light brown
c. "Measurements of cap and stem" - the big one fits exactly one wide mouth mason jar. Stems about 3.5 inches long.
d. "Characteristics of the stem (color, texture, hollow/solid, thin/thick, etc)" - smooth white stem with dark, almost purple gills. Solid, not hollow, fairly thick, and firm.
e. "Characteristics of the cap (color, texture, concical/spherical, convex/concave, etc)" - light cream to tan, darker in the center. Smooth, sometimes almost shiny, with a distinct nipple.
f. "Spore print color (very important!)" Still being taken, but dark.
g. "Color that the mushroom briuses" - blue
h. "Scent of mushroom" - mushroomy? Does not smell foul.
Here are the photos:
The viel on the big one fell off as I carried it back home. It was dark like the small one.
Spore print of the smaller one
Any suggestions as to what this is?

Thanks for the help...its always good to hear you find pcubes! So far the spore print is purple, but very thin. I'll still post a picture in a few hours when it has had time to develop.
Edit: one other thing...I posted this because it looks a lot different than the ones a friend is growing and those I've seen before in the wild. It seems a little on the 'white' side.

Town names are no biggies. Road names, intersections, shopping centers, parks, and addresses are.
The admins are working on fixing a bug. Right now you can't edit a locked post. Once the bug is fixed I will update the rules thread and be a little bit more specific.
