Well, uncooked rice thrown at weddings is a major killer of birds that feed on it. Thats why many churches, etc. only allow bird seed to be thrown. Apparently the birds ingest the uncooked rice which swells dramatically in the stomachs. If you do feed brown rice, I would suggest only COOKED rice. Not really knowing, I personally wouldnt do it for fear of impaction.
