Mushroom hat yellow and oozing?

I dont know if this is contam or what it is, cake looks the same as it has and there has been a lot of hats on most of my mushrooms, 70-90% of them, however this one is wet and oozing and yellowish? Wtf is happening and is this mushroom safe? The mushroom itself looks fan but ive never seen hats before this and never seen anything like this, the rest are dry and look like stems and then grow mycelium towards the end of the mushrooms life but this is verrrry different, the other are dry this is wet. Honestly it looks like the hat is there just has a yellow wet jelly around it?

Upon further inspection another in the corner seems to have the same thing going on and is actively leaking?

As you can see there is slime on top of the substrate now however nothing on the sides or under i can see, it would seem its leaking from the hat itself onto the sub?
Also the smell is different, i dont know how to explain it lol. Maybe spicy but not bad? Also the color isnt green or gray but maybe like a yellowish mucus looking substance I was about to do a flush on it so let me know if i still should, i figure it wouldnt hurt and maybe i should throw out the leaky ones? Im assuming mushrooms neighboring it should be fine as they arent leaking, at least not yet.

This is a neighboring mushroom that had slime at the base but not the hat yet, i cut off where the slime was on the base and this mushroom has a thicker darker blue than any other
I also have a mushroom that has no slime around it but a slimy hat. Its weird they are all a bit different so i cant tell at or if these mushrooms are salvageable or safe to eat/dry.
Full tub, as you can see i have more with a bit of time before prime should i just pick them now?
Im thinking maybe too much humidity but idek

Okay, so i put one to the side to see what would happen after a bit in a ziplock bag, i also took tghe top off the other(hat) and it was dripping wet like just touching it started pouring but after i broke it off the moisture and everything was gone, the mushroom itself looks normal afterwards. im attempting a flush to see how it goes, im not expecting much but hopefully i didnt just spread some random bacteria everywhere in the process.

So update, only been a couple hours since out of the soak and it got wayyyy worse, whatever the mucus slime was multiplied quickly so i tossed it outside asap, i am still very curious as to what yall think this could be and why it decided to affect the hats? And ooze from them? My only thought is that the mushrooms themselves absorbed this and it leaked through the top as it has a means to as it wasnt just cap. Now that also opens the question are those okay, or the ones around them okay? Or just those whos hats went dripping.
It is kinda funny though, my n my friend said they had balls on their head, and the only thing worse than balls on your head is hairy balls on your head, little did i know it would get worse and be big hairy oozing balls on your head
Also i dont know if this means anything but the whitest parts are where i had something on top holding it down so it looks the area with more water/oxygen reproduced more.

Make sense, so is it safe to assume the sub was contam, and the metabolites from the shrooms im assuming is “normal” in a sense its safe to consume those producing the high amounts? What kind of contam do you think it is? I havent seen anything like that myself.

Ive been reading the forum for over a decade and i also collect a lot of wild mushrooms. Ive never seen a reaction like that but it sure does look like a response to contamination. Assuming that the liquid is cubensis metabolites then there is nothing toxic in there especially in such small quantities. Still the visible reaction and metabolites essentially mean that the mushrooms arent "food grade" even though they are safe to consume. If you see any rot in the mushrooms or they smell bad then i would advice not to eat them.
Edit: To be honest.. At this point there is no one here who would take the risk to advice you to eat them just because no one seems to have seen that before. =/ I have often eaten fresh wild mushrooms without any problems of food poisoning or any nausea.

The mycoforum of my country just got their proof of shroomerys hostility. I do like it here though becaus of the agar. The archives are valuable.

Me too, i mean if people dont know what it is, i dont know if that means i have a ground zero situation, but in my opinion the amount of bacteria i mustve ate from fresh shrooms off cow patties has gotta be worse i mean that shit had to have been

so once the hats popped off the mushroom looked relatively normal, after drying as well. I threw away any wet ones or any with slime but the rest are as good as gold imo, out of site out of mind lol.
im assuming the general consensus lies with it being metabolites then i think they should be fine, still curious where the contam started and what people think it was, it truly looks like it leaked off the top of the cap so im still lead to believe that may have been the starting point and maybe not even metabolites. weird stuff.

Ground zero  Maby. I hope its nothing bad for your health. Some prions are deadly.

Awesome im glad to finally have an answer, what makes you think its this though? from everything ive seen it on verticillium im not seeing a common trait in my shrooms? Would you mind explaining how you came to the conclusion that is what it is? It seems pretty common to have some type of browning or specs or something but i have had nothing of the sort on any of my mushrooms, and anything i see on verticillium doesnt seems to have leaking or oozing subs/caps. Could possibly be because mine have hats but just curious what made you decide it is that.

Sorry. Posted in hurry. Still safe to eat but that's Rosecomb. Not sure why vert was stuck in my head. The ooze is likely metabolites or water. Cells get compressed and twisted. Glad you bumped that. TY

The lower left is classic Rosecomb. The others are odd but likely haven't or won't progress.
