Farmers from 10 provinces have offered to take the roughly 10,000 pigeons from Bangkok's Sanam Luang in order to sell the birds' eggs to restaurants, Deputy Bangkok Governor Theerachon Manomaipibul said yesterday.
The city is therefore having the Friendship Association for Pigeon Racing publish pigeon-farming handbooks for them, he said.
The pigeons, which will be cleared of parasites and diseases, should be delivered to farmers within a month of them registering their interest.
