Just make sure you go to one that has a No Chase policy
Oh and test every aspect of the mushroom from guide books, like gills, color, how they peel, any and everything you can test. Make sure to look into all possible mimics. Bring a field guide with you, do a double check before you leave, and triple check when you’re home.
You can easily test mushrooms for poison by feeding them to a small child. Even a small amount of poison will kill them, making them a very good indicator.
Only real issue is finding replacements. PM me if you need a reliable source.
