I found this while out looking for cubensis. I found about a pound and a half of cubensis and just one of these guys. I'd like to know what it is.
The cap is white with a small amount of bluing on the top and the lightest shade of brown towards the top. The cap looks more brown in the photos than it does in person.
The stem is fairly thick, maybe 3/4" and hollow in the center. The gills are a light yellow or tan color. The stem blued 30 seconds after I picked it.
It was found in some cow dung. I have not taken a spore print yet.
EDIT: guys, some people responded before I finished typing the post. I submitted it to test the images before typing the rest.
It seems I can only get one picture to display here. Here are the addresses to the others.

Xris, man, not only is that photo of too poor quality to be used for identification purposes, but it looks like it's the bottom of some mushroom. I wouldn't even trust the color in your picture. Take pics at various angles and have more of them.. Like of the cap, etc. Also you should resize them as to so they don't stretch our browsers all out. Also look at that link above on how to post a more complete description.

This is the shortest and fattest one I've ever seen then. Most of the cubes I found today were cracked. It's drying up 
The gill color is really throwing me, as they're a very light color, almost white. The first picture makes them seem a bit darker than they are.

When a Cube first pops its gills are off white to a almond color.. Once it ages a few hours and the dark spoor start to drop your gill color will change.. As the Cap grows larger the gills will stain dark..

I don't think anyone is meaning to flame you. In the past we have seen many people just post a pic without first reading and stuff. Incomplete ID requests are so common that it's frustrating.. so that's why we encourage people complete the info asked in the guidelines. So thanks for doing so! For future reference, you can use the preview post check box to avoid this kind of confusion. As far as the ID goes I can't argue with YESSUP
