as above .this autumn we have loads .i am picking them although horses probably would leave them,but not sure why its so bad .weve been here 15 years and never had them before .any thoughts.
 
We have a lot as its been so wet. Ive never seen a horse touch them and most poisonous ones are more woodland species so I leave them in situ and just make sure there is some grass in the field.
 
Ive got them too but I get them every year, never seen my horses touch them but I just lift them with the fork as I do my poo picking if I go past any, my friend picks them and takes them home to eat if she goes down my field but personally I won't incase they are something untoward.
 
Had loads this year. I pick them and give them to friends or they come and pick their own. I know they are field mushrooms! I am not trying to poison my mates lol!
 
we've had tons of mushrooms too this year yum yum :D
Think you may find the yellow circles are where your horse wees?
 
We have loads some are gy normous!!! Al la Jamie, garlic, herbs, cheese and under the grill.

With chicken, or steak or in spag bol. Free don't turn your nose up. We had some for breakfast this am.
 
we have had lots of mushrooms too, unfortunately i don't know anything about them so don't know which are safe to eat and which are not which is a shame as wild edible mushrooms are tasty and free.
 
Id love to see a red toadstool with spots on! That would be cool.

Anyway, We have had gigantic mushrooms and loads of them too. Can't stand mushrooms personally, but some old bloke comes and picks them for this tea!
