My daughters talked about it for a few years and showed me some videos of people that had they get them to talk. . They were pretty cool. They are invasive so no wildlife laws to worry about so figure whay not.

The largest challenge was geting my boys to not shoot then when building and nesting. Due to time limits she is leaving the young longer than she would like since she cant feed them as often as they would need on work days.

Has anyone ever messed with them before.

Only good starling is a DEAD starling.....

They are smart for sure. If I walk outside unhealed they just watch me walk under them. The second I step out the door with a gun in my hand they take off in a panic.

No, never heard of taming them,... but interesting fact,.... had a cat that waited under the deck for an English sparrow to fall, and would eat the whole thing, but she'd sniff the starlings and walk away in disgust, lol

We had hundreds of thousands of starlings when the duck farms were active, the large flight formations were fascinating to watch...

They were imported as caged birds.

Super smart birds. If they weren’t so destructive they would be easy to like.

They taste good too!

They can be a challenge to feed and raise as I found out. Don't feed them live worms. Their feeding routine can be tricky. Dont feed them too much or too often.

Sorry I can't help any further.
