Pigeon was very common as a foodstuff up until about the 60's.

I have a close neighbour who raises Pigeons for food. He eats the babies, called Squabs, less than 4 weeks old. Disease free.

when you gotta eat, you gotta eat

i do wonder what the chances of contracting histoplasmosis or cryptococcosis by eating pigeons are though

There are specific breeds of pigeon bread for eating, but you can also eat the common homing pigeon. Mind you, the buggers would be pretty tough.

I would think it would be okay if the bird is thoroughly cooked.
