All our wood pigeon in feather are supplied whole and unprocessed, with plumage checked for condition before dispatch.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable throughout the year from agricultural Suffolk, wood pigeon is a practical, reliable specimen for taxidermy, photography and film work. It is also one of our most popular birds with Scout leaders and outdoor educators running bushcraft sessions. For falconers and raptor keepers, our eco-shot option, typically steel rather than lead, means these birds are suitable for feeding birds of prey.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note: as this bird has not been processed by our butchery, we are unable to undertake our usual quality control checks on the meat. It will arrive with traces of blood on the plumage. The vast majority of birds are in excellent condition, but customers purchasing for consumption should be aware that we cannot guarantee meat quality as we would with our oven-ready range.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChoice of shot\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe offer two options: standard lead shot has long been the traditional choice for game birds, or our recently introduced eco-friendly option. This is typically steel shot, which is significantly better for the environment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"WildMeatCompany","offers":[{"title":"Standard","offer_id":56383419318658,"sku":"IN14005","price":3.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Eco-friendly","offer_id":56383419351426,"sku":"IN14006","price":4.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0391\/7709\/products\/Wild_Meat_April17_55_pigeon_web.jpg?v=1498748922","url":"https:\/\/www.wildmeat.co.uk\/products\/woodpigeon-in-feather","provider":"Wild Meat Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
