Mushrooms are a fungus, the main body of which grows underground. The tops that you see that pop up, sometimes in little fairy rings, are the spores or reproductive fruit, of that fungus. Mushroom farms are located underground, are dimly lit and make use of tons of composted manure every year. The fungus grows in these conditions, and once harvested are shipped out to stores all across the country. Pigs are used to harvest certain types of mushrooms called truffles, which are highly prized and very expensive in the culinary trade.

Are the mushrooms that grow out of horse manure psychedelic?

There are many types of mushrooms so location alone can not determine what kind of mushroom it is. Some types of mushrooms in the same family can look alike and live in the same conditions but one can be harmless and the other terribly poisonous.... Psilocybe Cubensis and Panaeolus subbalteatus are in general the two species that appear in the USA on cow patties. There are many mushrooms that can grow on compost substrates though, for instance portebellos. In general, unless you are a mycologist who specializes in the field study of fungus, dont eat a mushroom you arent absolutely sure it is, what it is. There are many mushrooms that look like psilocybin mushrooms that are actually deadly. In general the rule of thumb when it comes to psychoactive mushrooms is to take a spore print of the mushroom. Dark purple spore prints is a good sign you are one step closer to identifying a psychedelic mushroom. White spore prints are big no nos as well.
