yeah looks like walnut! if it is - sell those logs. . . my other suspicion would be chestnut oak? the more I look the more im seeing walnut. . . could we get a photo of the ends of the logs?

Black walnut will have characteristic chocolate colored heartwood.
* Pic of end grain ?
Walnut bark is soft and will slice with pen knife with solid, brown color.
Twig scars of walnut very characteristic - 'monkey face' (mouth w/ two eyes).
Pith of twigs are distinctive too - chambered.

I’m heading to cut it in an hour or so. All I’ve seen it those pics. It you look at where the limbs were cut I see that dark heartwood. That’s why I’m thinking walnut.
There is no money in walnut right now. The market to China is dried up.

Yes, that's a better guess than black oak. Chestnut oak or walnut . The end of that one looks like walnut.

That was my guess. Bark is certainly not Black Oak, Tulip Poplar or Black Walnut like I see here.
