Hmmm...I Wonder...

Hey guys, sorry to be a bother, but I discovered some mushrooms outside in my backyard. I had planned on taking a dip in the pool until this lil thing caught my eye. I took 3 pix of it and tried to compare it to others on the net. So far it seems that this species could be poisonous/weak. It looks close to being a Psilocybe Cubensis. I had cut it in half, the stalk was hollow and turned an orange/brownish color after being exposed. But then again I could be wrong. This is all my guessing but I'd appreciate on your guys' feedback onto what this may actually be. Thx all.

Man STOP! Don't ever Wonder! That has absolutely no resemblance to a Cubensis! This is a Texas Cube... Note: Not a thing in common to the lawn mushroom in your pic!
 Unless you fertilized your lawn with a non composted cow dung than its near imposable for a Cube to just pop up in your back yard.. Do some homework here on this sight and you will understand ALOT more.. If you picked that thing than wash your hands after you toss it in the trash! Yessup

Shani_Aria, you should buy yourself a good field guide and start reading. It helps to know at least a little bit about mushrooms before you try to identify one. I certainly wouldn't attempt to eat any wild mushrooms until I knew what I was getting myself into. By the way that doesn't look anything like a cubensis.

some poisonous mushrooms bruise blue, and although they can be easily ID'd out of the category do to a pourous under-cap, they are still poisonous, and still bruise blue.
