    Is it safe to eat wild/city pigeons?

    I am staying in Dublin, Ireland, and I was wondering if I caught wild city pigeons, are they safe to eat after cooking well? Or they do have parasites that won't be gotten rid of by cooking? Everybody eats fish from the sea, or other birds we hunt.. right? So, apart from that "yucky" thought...

    Is this seller safe? A question for people in NSW

    So I may get some pigeons off this seller but I'm pretty sure a few years ago someone put an ad up on Gumtree about that the birds were sick. I'm still not getting any birds off him just in case. If anyone knows of this seller please tell me more about the the health and state of his pigeons, Thanks

    Wild/lost pigeon staking out my house.

    Hello there! I have a pigeon hanging around our house for the past few weeks. I've never seen a pigeon in suburbia before. I'm going to feed him, since he's helping himself to our water fountain. Should I try to capture him? Keep him warm over the winter? I'm intrigued with this guy.

    Placement of nest boxes and perches?

    For pigeons in Wisconsin, with wide temperature variations cold to hot, would it be best to place most of the nest boxes and perches along the North side(shaded) or the South side(sunny) of the loft?
