It would be better if the pictures came out clearer especially when you zoom in on them. The mycelium growth looks awesome. It's like you can see sector growth in all different spots.

That's called rhizomorphic growth:
Rhizo:
   
Tomentose:

if you want to attempt the grain slurry you will need an oster blender wtih the blade attachment. this will fit snugly to a regular mouth quart, pint or 1/2 pint jar. this will make blending much easier. but you will need to break up the grain in the container. then transfer it to the jar that has the pre sterilized water/blender lid on it.

Are both forms of growth expected?

The form mycelium takes depends on available nutrients so both forms are expected and mean nothing. If you have low nutrients, the mycelium will appear ropey as it's stretching for nutes. If you have high nutrients it will appear tomentose.
Neither have any bearing on fruiting potential.

Good to know. Learn something new everyday. Thanks for the info.

Why is a blender needed?

Well a slurry is basically blended mycelium in sterile water. You have to put the blender blades on a jar with some water, blades facing the inside, PC it to sterilise everything. Then you can put mycelium in there in a SAB, blend. Then what you have is a slurry. I would suggest you find a slurry tek if you need more information.
