If you feed a pidgen with bread with baking soda on and let them drink water, do they explode once they have flown away?

No, it's not true.

Depends how MUCH you've given them. I don't think water and baking soda will react the same way soda and vinegar do though. We've got a myth out in the West that you can feed a seagull an Alkaseltzer tablet and they'll explode.

I think you will find that the baking soda will react with the stomach acid to produce CO2 but it won't explode.You will not be able to feed it enough to produce that much gas.My guess is the pigeon will not fancy the bread anyway.

Yes this is true as it works with Seagulls too, but I wouldnt recommend trying it - extremely messy. If you do take an umbrealla.

this is new to me. i doubt it. if you tried it might even be against the law. in any case it would probably come out one hole or the other, if you know what i mean.

Apparently this is true so i have been told. This is because pigeons cannot break wind.
