Persimmon wood

[Snickers]

I know someone posted to see if persimmon wood is good for chins. I believe the only response was if it has a pit it's not good. Persimmons do not have a pit but I just want to know if it is still good for them. When I had rabbits they love the fruit like candy.

Thanks in advance.

I could not find it either on a toxic/safe bird list but the wood dude who has woodworking material site has it listed as a irritant, so IMO I would not give it.

Persimmons and their wood are rich in tannins and would likely cause stomach upset in a chin that consumed too much persimmon wood.
