OK, so the issue with most pigeon is 1. Diseases and 2. Poor trash diet making them taste bad

Now, for those who don't know, Escargot (snails) have a similar problem, so Escargot that are farmed for human consumption are kept confined and fed a healthy diet to flush them out and sweeten their flavor prior to cooking. My question is, could you capture pigeons, keep them in cages, and feed them in a similar way? Flush them out with grain and seed, fatten them up, and THEN cook them. But that still leaves the lingering problem of disease, which I can't figure out a way around.

That problem, if it were one, would apply to all wild game.
Check your meat for cysts etc. and cook it through if you're that worried.
And don't a fucking city pigeon. God only knows that those things have fed on.

Why did you post a picture of a deer, then start talking about pigeons? Most of the pigeons I have ever eaten were from the wild, I used to go with my dad to hunt them. Getting up early, getting yelled at for being too slow or too loud, or moving too quickly. No good food either, because he was a shitty cook back then. Then we get the pigeon he shot, and stick it in the trunk of our Toyota Corolla on a tarp and drive back home to hang it in the garage for butchering. Good times. I don't know why you would want to cage a pigeon though, it's important that they get lots of exercise to their meat stays nice and lean.

Pigeons were intentionally brought to America as a food source. Yes, they are perfectly edible if you feed them something other than garbage.

They eat literal trash. You can't "clean them out" by feeding them on oats for a few days.

If you're going to eat something like a pigeon or a rat or squirrel you don't get ones from cities. A rat that lives in a rice paddy in the middle of bumfuck nowhere is going to be fine to eat since it eats what it's supposed to and doesn't wade through sewers

Cuomo, current governor of NYC, very famously had a meltdown live on media this year when some guy called him Fredo, and started going on about how it was an anti-italian slur and racist. This is probably a comment about Cuomo's perceived sensitivity about supposed anti-italian racism, as Wop is an actual racial slur for italians

Back in the day, my dad raised homing pigeons and he would get together with other hobbyists to get drunk and talk about their birds and he’d regularly eat squab (baby pigeon) but these weren't wild urban pigeons, they were raised at home (he had a huge coup out in the backyard) and feed with specific pigeon feed he got from the farmer’s supply joint in town (now long gone).

>What's the reason for eating baby pigeon?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squab

Usually considered a delicacy, squab is tender, moist and richer in taste than many commonly consumed poultry meats, but there is relatively little meat per bird, the meat being concentrated in the breast.[3]:211, 214[20] Squab is dark meat, and the skin is fatty, like that of duck.[3] The meat is very lean, easily digestible, and "rich in proteins, minerals, and vitamins".[7] It has been described as having a "silky" texture, as it is very tender and fine-grained.[7][21] It has a milder taste than other game,[22] and has been described as having a mild berry flavor.[7] Squab's flavor lends itself to complex red or white wines.[22]
