I probably asked this already,
Is Honeysuckle safe; the blooms and vine? Is it good for them?

I wouldn't:

Poisonous Berries
If the berries of honeysuckle plants are ingested in large quantities, they can cause illness. Toxicity varies depending on the species, ranging from non-poisonous to mildly toxic. Symptoms of mild poisoning by honeysuckle berries include vomiting, diarrhea, sweats, dilated pupils and increased heartbeat. If ingested in large quantities, respiratory failure, convulsions and coma may occur. However, the nectar from the flowers of a honeysuckle plant can be ingested without harm.

The showy fly honeysuckle berries may be mildly toxic, especially if eaten in quantities. These berries are red and grow in pairs.
