Strange 'substance' in my garden! Eeeek weak stomachs beware

Recommended Posts

Well I don't know what it is. I came downstairs this morning all bleery eyed looked into my garden and discovered this!

It was all cream until I poked it with a branch :shock:

I've never seen anything like it before. Is is fungal, vomit or ectoplasm?!

Has anyone else seen anything like this before and if so do they know what it is?

The inside definately looks like something the Tigger would sick up after a heavy night in the garden - choccy is probably right - animal sick that's covered in some kind of fungi. :vom:

I think it's a fungus of some sort. When I broke the 'skin' of it it was cream inside not that orangy colour at all. By the time I'd got my camera it had changed colour, like it had oxidised! Once I'd broken it, it deflated to about one fifth of it's original size.

There was definitely nothing there last night.

Really wierd!!!

I thought it might be a puff ball but it doesn't look anything like the photos in my mushroom book :?

I shall re-examine the evidence when I get home tonight - hopefully the cats haven't eaten it :vom:

Maybe I'll never know....if it is a fungus then maybe i'll get more. If so I'll not disturb it and see how big it grows.

I will keep you all posted tonight! Thanks for your replies.
