Poisonous or am I good to go?

Alright, never done shrooms before. I got this last night from a friend of a kid I knew in high school. Been looking up stuff online and apparently the red mushrooms are poisonous. Can't find any pictures though that look like mine, so I have come here to ask the experts.
Am I good to go with eating this? If so you recommend eating the entire thing my first time or what?

That is an Amanita and it is totally different from the Psilocybin containing Mushrooms. Its not poisonous when its dried like that, but I recommend you go read about it all you can on http://www.erowid.com

I don't if you're gonna get a trip out of it or not, you need a pretty substantial amount for the ride through hell it produces. Check out ---> http://www.erowid.org/plants/amanitas/amanitas.shtml

Thats not a psilocybe mushroom----it looks like an Amanita Muscaria and your friend probably bought it online and reselling it as a magic mushroom (common occurence). Amanita's are very unpredictable when it comes to active/poisonous compounds. In either case, this species (which contains ibotenic acid and muscimol) wont deliver the effect of a magic psychedelic mushroom (which contains psilosin and psilocybin---the good stuff). Any psychoactive compounds will be present in the top layer skin and it the common method of administration is smoking.

That looks like a Amanita Muscaria cap.
Unless you already knew this - most people on this website are referring to Psilocybe-active mushrooms when they say "shrooms". Amanita's are legal (in the US, psilocybe's are illegal) you can buy them off the internet.
I believe Amanita's are poisonous when fresh. Im not sure if thats safe to eat - dont wanna give bad advice.

Geeze, slow down everybody. To trip off an Amanita, your gonna wanna eat it. It isn't poisonous unless you eat way too many, which is why its important to take a correct dosage. Just do some research, that probably wont be enough to trip.
Smoking it does have an effect, but its far from a trip, I'd call it a mild dissociation. Mix it with some bud and smoke fair amount of it, and it might be an alright experience for you.

Rip off soem of the skin from the cap put it in a bowl with some weed and smoke that shit. Repeat process until desired effects are felt or until you feel your soul being lifted into another universe. Enjoy!

It shouldn't.
but with the way everyones chemistry and all that works, anything could make anyone sick. I'd say there's a 99.999% chance you're good to go

Please smoke the skin and don't eat that disgusting thing. Don't drink your urine either, no one wants to hear about that hsit.

I have tried amanitas a few ways - smoking I found pretty hard - didnt get anything out of it. I have also tried wetting my hand and trying to take it through the skin - made my hand tingle but not any real effect. And I have eaten it - if it is amanita will not kill you, 
I've probably eaten about 4 caps in one go, and they were fresh and in pasta. The smell is gross.
I would suggest - brew up a coffee, and chuck it in. You will find its nowhere near as bad a smell as with fresh ones. For what its worth I "spewed my ringer out", but my friends kept it down and they had an awesome time. Its kinda a drunk feeling to start with, then you can get full visuals and its real fun. Apparantly the size of objects changes alot - and it also makes you "stronger" - no shit. It frees up your muscles, meaning you can do the same action but for less effort, like if you wanna jump over a stick you'll jump way too far. It should be noted that in some people they get slight cramps/ muscle twitches.
Take some weed before hand so you can handle the nausea a little easier(a very common problem), if you can stomach it, it sounds probably pretty cool.
Hope that helps.

No, amanitas contain muscimol, nothing like psilocybin. If you are going to eat them I recommend you do some research, start with this.
