Hello,

I am a new member on shroomery although I have been using the site for information for years. I am a land surveyor in eastern virginia so I see many mushrooms on a daily basis working mainly in the woods. I am fairly experienced with cultivating cubes but am new to hunting wilds but am very excited to learn as much as I can! Anyway I found two mushrooms today at work that I believe to be blue foots but I am pretty skeptical due to their rarity. They were found on the floor of a deciduous Forrest bed. The stalks were slightly purple when I picked them and then became darker purple / blue in my hands after a few minutes. The caps are tan/brown, 1 1/4 inch across and a knobbed top. The gills are attached and are a purple/ brown color. No trace of a veil. Stems are about 3 inches long and 1/4 inch wide. Spore print was a little difficult because I had to wait awhile before I got off and they had deposited most of their spores by then but it seems to be a dark purple/brown color. They definitely had a bruising effect but it was more purple than blue, also after a couple hours even the caps turned slightly purple. I have some pics on my phone but I am not very tech savay so if someone could explain to me how to post them that'd be great! Thanks for all the help and also please let me know if I am using the site incorrectly and I will be happy to adapt.
