    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...

    Wild Birds *Caught* in Run....

    Can wild quail be domesticated/raised for eggs?

    I'm in Phx, AZ where quail often lay in flower pots or around hay bales. I've thought of taking the eggs and raising for eggs as I do chickens.
