Like any bird poop, it's best to compost it first.

Whoops!

Missed the "compost heap" part, sorry! I was thinking garden.
With the amount of grain pigeons waste, some of the millet etc. might
sprout but it still composts well.

On the compost heap, unless you want to burn your plants.

Don't know. My brother has been raising and racing pigeons for 3 decades
now. He uses their feces on his lawn. Super green St. Augustine.
