Pregnancy guidance
Safe with precautionsCooked dove and squab are safe with precautions during pregnancy when heated to safe internal endpoints. These game birds deliver heme iron, zinc, and bioavailable protein to help meet heightened prenatal hematologic needs. Cook all wild or farm-raised game birds to a verified internal temperature of 165°F to destroy parasites and bacteria. Avoid wild game hunted with lead ammunition due to lead toxicity risks.
