2ndHand 5 year old buck + Aug 9, 2014 #1 Two years ago we gathered a few seeds near Baraboo, WI, at the time we had no idea what type of tree it was. We planted a few in our backyard. Here's a few photo's - I think it's an American Chestnut - your thoughts please!....:cool::

THunter 5 year old buck + Aug 9, 2014 #2 Yep, buckeye most likely. Not good for deer but a nice tree for the yard. I have one in my backyard that I started from a nut.

H homegrownbucks 5 year old buck + Aug 10, 2014 #4 I have heard deer like the horse chestnuts, can anyone corroborate that?
THunter 5 year old buck + Aug 10, 2014 #5 No they don't. Only thing I've ever seen eat them is wild hogs. Well, that's buckeyes, but they're basically the same thing.
