Could some one tell me what kind of berries these are?

This guy has great tips on using mulberries:

Love/hate with most folks is because mulberries seed very easily. You have to try ripping out the seedlings before they get too big or they won't budge. I liked having them in my yard in Texas. They were tasty and the chickens went crazy for them.

They are mildly sweet, sort of like a salmon berry or boysenberry.

Another interesting fact: In Asia, mulberries are the primary food for silkworms, which in turn, produce silk.

! A thought !

I bet silkworms also produce dingleberries.

HA!

That's why we don't have to many mulberries in our yard!
Birds, berries and clotheslines don't mix!!!

We love our mulberries too. Lay out tarp shake and enjoy. We get deer in the morning, and feed the chickens and children in the afternoon! Great jam and good wine if you are patient!
