This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] My vet told me that black walnut leaves are toxic to horses and not to let my fjords be in the same pasture with them. Anybody else heard that?

Don't knock the black walnut tree. That is the only wood my husband will use to make gun stocks out of. The feathering and patterns in the grain from the root area or crotch where a branch was can be breath taking once finished. Plus it costs plenty when finished.

RE: black walnut
This message is from: Gail Russell [EMAIL PROTECTED] Our black walnuts fall near a road. The crows pick them up, sit on the power line and drop them...trying to get them to crack. What actually happens is they land on the road, people drive over them, and the crows eat them. I enjoy aiming for them (near the side of the road) and watching the crows flock down in my rear view mirror to get them. Much better sport than taking them to the landfill.

This message is from: Cherie Mascis [EMAIL PROTECTED] My vet told me that black walnut leaves are toxic to horses and not to let my fjords be in the same pasture with them. Anybody else heard that? Bonnie MacCurdy Visalia, CA As far as I know, (I may be wrong but I've worked for a number of Vets), the black walnut toxin juglone is not in the leaves but is found in the bark, wood, nuts, and roots. Horses are primarily affected when exposed to shavings. Cherie The FjordHorse List archives can be found at: http://tinyurl.com/rcepw

Re: black walnut
This message is from: Jean Ernest [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hey, Black walnut meats are great in a cake: look in your recipe books for Black Walnut cake, or make fudge with black walnuts in it1 Delicious. Worth the effort (imo) to crack and pick out the nut meat. When I was a kid in Ohio, we had black walnut trees and we gathered every nut we could: let the lay a while for the husks to rot away than went after the nut meat. We had Hickory nuts also, almost as much work as the black walnuts, but delicious! Jean in Alaska, where the only kind of nuts we have are the the human kind!
