I just bought some land in Idaho and I'm trying to identify this tree (actually there are a few). At first I thought this was some type of cherry, which meant I was going to cut it down this fall since it was in the chicken yard. But the fruits don't really cluster together, they are just now becoming ripe, and the flesh is a yellowish-orange. If this is a plum should I prune in spring or fall? I'm really just trying to verify that it is indeed plum and my animals are safe. There are also no thorns that i can see.
