It's an Agaricus species. If it doesn't smell like ink, then it's edible.

Don't forget the yellow staining indicative of Agaricus xanthodermus.

looks tasty but need more info to determine species.

start with...

cut the flesh of the stem and cap and report if there is a gradual color change.  dig the base of the stipe from the ground, cut it, and report any odor.

Yes but Agaricus arvensis also stains yellow and that is a choice edible. I always eat the ones (Agaricus sp!) that smell tasty.

True,I used to pick arvensis all the time up in Kentucky,and they stained a light yellow,nothing like that of xanthodermus,but yeah,I was just throwing that little bit of info out for the fella:cool:

Indeed yellowing of arvensis is nothing like that of Xanthodermus so there is no confusion to be had there. These look like A. campestris.

It can be difficult to get specimens that are completely maggot free sometimes (of any species of mushroom). Generally once the cap has completely opened it's too late. The yellowing of A. xanthodermus is an obvious egg yolk colour yellow staining.
Another way to tell if they are one of the toxic species is that they will smell bad when cooked.

What I am hoping to do is get spore print if it's the edible one, grow them indoors hopefully get maggot free ones then, don't like maggots lol
