Are maple leaves poisonous?

I put a blind up for my pullets made of maple branches, they aren't really eating it but I wanted to make sure it was safe for them.

It depends on the species and time of the year. Red maple is - http://www.horsedvm.com/poisonous/red-maple/

This relates to horses, nice info for those who have pasture sharing though.

All my leaves (fall dry leaves or fresh ones) go into the run....I have maple and oak trees. Never any issues. They don't eat them, but they're a good carbon source.
