Jumped in a field mid day looked under a tree and found one mushroom popping out of cow dung. I saw there was other pins coming out so i grabbed dung and brought it home. They look like copes to me not sure. I took a spore print and it was black. Cap on the biggest one was about the size of a quarter they were sort of beige With a hint of Gold and bruised blue. What are the chances i have found an active? What should i do with the dung that has those pins growing out? The other day i had a couple getting big then the next day they were gone. I'm noticing more pins growing out what should i do? Sorry no pic.

Does the mushroom possible have a black ring around the stem?
A picture would work wonders, try searching around the forums and see if you can find a pic that looks identical.
If it bruises blue i would think its active.

Looking at it closely it resembles the copes it has no veil and is white leading to a tan color at the top of the cap. Bruises blue and has a black spore print what other things to look for to verify if it is a cope? Thanx

Your description matches an active Copelandia. There are no black spored, blue bruising, dung dwelling mushrooms which are poisonous.
