Symptoms of Dove #1
Inability to roost properly without some time and extra room; if indeed unable...
I was told by a fellow rescue that doves will die if it gets below 60° ?
I just adopted two doves and I need to know if they will die if it gets below 60° I heard it depends on the breed

Hello!
I currently have 8 doves, 2 of which are only just flying. They are managing to do a huge amount of droppings around their dovecote, and I can't find any way to keep the area clean.
Does anyone have any tips?
Thank you!

Last month I brought home a pair of Barbary/ringneck doves, 1 male and 1 female per cage. I've seen others use an open nest and attached it to the inside wall of the cage. I don't have one but will get one soon.
