Copelandia Cyanescens

So today me and a friend went out to some cow pastures about 30 miles north of where we live, and searched for mushrooms. We've been out there several times before, with no luck, but today we were finding a species that looked extremely similar to Copelandia cyanescens, but was not bruising blue, or at least did not seem to be. They were everywhere though, all over old cow patties and what not, mostly in areas with alot of trees. However, after we had filled about half a gallon Zip-Lock bag with them, and none were bruising blue, we dumped them. We did, however, keep one, and my friend will be doing a spore-print on it tonight. I'm going to be upset if it turns out to be the same spore print that Copelandia cyanescens leaves. Does this mushroom tend to bruise extremely blue? Or what? The stalks were very thin.

Well, I may have been mistaken. Apparantly, the one we salvaged, my friend looked at it before he took the cap off to spore print it, and where it was broken was "extremely dark blue". However, that's like 5 hours after we picked it. I pinched a few while we were in the fields and noticed no blue bruising. It just appeared brown when I pinched it.

I found a mushrooms that looked almost identical to Copelandia Cyanscens but they did not bruise blue. The folks on the site helped me to learn that they were really Panaeolus antillarum which are not active mushrooms =(
Those could be what you found also.. Look at a picture of Panaeolus antillarum on this sites species identification page and see if it maches up...

Definetly Panaeolus antillarums there all over the place down here. Sucks that they are so many of them and so little cyans.

all copes that i have ever found have turned bluer than blue within a few minutes in fact you have to be careful not to touch them to much or they turn way to blue and degrade.

The fact that you live in Arkansas alone tells me that they're not Copelandia cyanescens. Copes don't grow there.
It's got to be Panaeolus antillarum... inactive.
