I don't know much about puffballs, I've heard that there are some choice edible ones out there though. I'd appreciate any help.

Those Look Nothing Like Puffballs My Friend, Puffballs Are Not Gilled Mushrooms.

Those In Your Pics Are Mushroom Pins & Mature Specimens Growing Next To Them, Not Sure Which Sp, Possibly Agaricus Sp.

That's a neat one.
Those are not puffball at all, the small ones are the button stage of whatever the big ones are. Ima keep checking this cause I think I have an idea but I'm not confident enough to express my opinion on this one.

I would call those Agaricus possibly.

So you all are definitely right, not puff balls at all.

Here are the pics of my prints. The caps began curling up and browning. The print is dark black with a little bit of a sludge left behind.

After seeing the last pictures I must say it has to be coprinellus domesticus or similar.

Pictures of a young pin split in two.



Going through my field guides I really can't find anything that I'd definitely say they are. Being in the genus Agaricus seems like a likely route. I'll most likely be discarding these little guys. I appreciate all the feedback and suggestions!

Definitely not Agaricus! Coprinellus does sounds more fitting.
