Re: [blackbelly] More on Roundup

You have just described Sliver Leaf Nightshade and the reason that your
sheep won't eat it because it is poisonous.  However you will need to watch
animals from parts of the country where Nightshade doesn't grow because they
will eat it.  The yellow balls are really poisonous.
Dogs will sometimes eat the leaves.  So far I haven't seen it harm my dogs.
