Are my B+ contaminated?

Hello,
This is my first post on this forum. I've searched for answers to my questions in this forum but I'm still not sure so please excuse this double post. I want to add, that it's my first time growing shrooms, so I'm carefully and wanna be sure about the "quality" ...
I bought the "ready-to-grow" box (psilocybe cubensis b+).
I've got three questions:
1) I wanted to ask if it's normal if these shrooms are blue in the inside and somewhere on the outside (see pictures 1)? In one post, I've read that it's normal. Am I right?
2) I know that they can get brown spots from the falling spores? Are the brown spots on my shrooms such ones (see picture 1)? Or are these browns spots bacteria? If it's bacteria, can I just remove them by cutting off these parts?
3) Some of the shrooms have like a white skin (see picture 2)? Is it mycelium or bacteria?
Please give me some advice, I'd really appreciate it!
Thanks for reading and answering, Sanji

Cant see pics?
But sounds normal. If shrooms grew and look ok, they should be ok?
Chuck the pics up

Post in the contam forum. The bluse spot are bruising and the brown spots look like Verticillium. They'll be okay if you dry them fast. IMO
EDIT - I'm still not 100% about the brown spot's. I've looked threw over 20 thread's and no on give's a straight up answer. They just all say, " I think it's Verticillium".
The brown strips are from high humidity.
