What kind of mushroom is this?

Hi BYC Community,

Has anyone ever seen this type of mushroom before?
We moved into our place early this year and it came with a half filled compost bin. I started dumping chicken waste and dinner scraps in it then heaps of these mushrooms started appearing.

They are a type of ink cap mushroom, not sure which species.
