Peach Tree Wood?

[wingittim]

Is it ok?

No. Peaches have a pit/stone and stone fruit trees are not safe.

It's not safe. If a chin ingests it, it could cause problems. There are certain compounds in the wood that react with digestive juices in the stomach and become extremely toxic.

Wow. They sell peach tree wood at a pet store nearby and it says some crap like "Good for all rodents!"

Gah.

Yep..apparently they think trees that contain substances that can convert into cyanide are safe for chins. One of the many reasons we say...don't trust pet stores and the products they sell!
