Is this contamination?

I have 5 jars with the standard vermiculite and BRF mixture. I inoculated them 2 weeks ago and they started colonizing quickly, but there were small red specks around the inoculation sites. It looked like a little piece of vermiculite just got wet and was pressed against the glass, so I let it go. The sites remained uncolonized for a while and looked like wet vermiculite. Then yesterday the inoculation sites also started to colonize but now it looks even more contaminated:
With flash...
 I looked at the contamination thread so I'm assuming it's some type of contamination. I think it is lipstick mold, but not positive. Is it contamination?

I'm new to Shroomery and I can not figure out how to create a new post, but I have a few questions regarding my BRF cakes. This is my first time growing, so I don't know too much about all this, but I was wondering if any of these cakes look contaminated at all and if the deformed looking mushrooms are okay to consume. The third picture down has some greenish blue on one part of it. I don't know if that's a contam or just natural bruising. Can anybody help me out?

Hi there,
To start a new topic, search for the link "Post" at the top right section of the forum page.
Regarding your question in particular, that's a genetic deformation or mutation. I don't believe it's contamination but I would watch out for that blob in the last pic. It could be bruising or a contam. Hard to tell judging by the pics.
