        Hey! I just made a bridge for Jack out of branches from my backyard. Then I realized I should’ve checked to see what kinds of wood are toxic! It’s made of a little bit of oak (which I know is toxic…. so mad at myself for not realizing!) and mostly birch, which I believe is non-toxic. These branches have been disconnected, dead, and dried out for a while though, so I was just wondering if it’s okay for Jack to chew on them now? Also, I’ve never used chemicals on my trees and so they have none. Thanks!

          I’m not sure about them being very dried out, but oak is definitely on the toxic list. Birch is of course safe as you mentioned

            I didn’t think oak was toxic per se. It contains tannin. But so does willow, so I don’t know what the difference would be. MediRabbit says twigs and leaves containing tannin can actually help prevent coccidia.

              Okay, thanks for your help. There is very minimal oak used, probably only one or two branches, so I think it’s safe.
