Pepper trees and minis

[liltnt]

Thinking about moving again but this time I can have my boys with me instead of boarding them. But first I need to know if being under pepper trees is likely to hurt them? I did call the vet but well I dont always trust them so thought I would ask here.

Thank you in advance.

while I'm sure that some horses might be sensitive to them, as some of us people at the barn here are... I've never had a horse - big or mini, have a problem with our many pepper trees - I've often let the horses strip the branches we prune, and we have 2 pepper trees we tie horses to that get chewed on too!

Most of the horses in my area have pepper trees on the property and I have never heard of a problem with these trees. It's one of the very few trees I actually feel comfortable having around my horses!
