Thanks, I live in the desert so there is only bushes and Joshua Trees, lol. I will have to try a find a friend with trees to collect some branches from. This dove has very loud coos and inflates his chest. I let him out of his cage yesterday and after flying around the room a couple of times it...
Thank you, how do you sex ringneck doves? I wish I had a garden but we just started planting trees last year so they are still really small. We do have 3 big pine trees but I have been told that they are not safe for making bird perches for parrots however since doves don't chew the wood would...
I want to make some new perches for it since it only came with the one but what makes up a good perch for doves? Do they like flat or round surfaces better?
Thanks for all of the info and I guess it will stay inside until I build the cockatiel's outdoor area. I want to get it a companion but I don't want babies so if I got a female would I use the fake eggs that I use for my pigeons or are they to big? I have read conflicting info on keeping two...
I don't recommend keeping chickens and pigeons together unless you chickens are really laid back. I tried to put my 4 pigeons in with our chickens and when ever the pigeons got within reach of the chickens the chickens would all attack the pigeons.
A friend gave me a male ringneck dove along with two cockatiels, a snake and a gecko. I am new to doves and could use some care info. The dove was kept indoors but I want to put all of my birds outside so I was wondering if it could be housed with my two pigeon pairs in a 7' wide x 7' tall x 15'...
My dad bought 4 chicks last week from the feed store and I think that one is a Gold Sex Link. I have been looking at pictures of sex link chicks and it is looking like ours is a male. I am really hoping for it to be a female since we already have 4 roosters that we need to get rid of. Can anyone...
We bought 7 chicks that were supposed to be hens and they all turned out to be roosters. We were going to eat them but they are only about 5 months old and are bullying our 3 hens so we need them gone. Right now they are loose in our yard but we are worried that the stray dogs will get them...
Thanks, I always have Zupreem pellets in a dish near the top of the cage. Their dinner consists of 3 tablespoons seed (I use a seed mix that does not have sunflower seeds in it but I add a few to their dinner) , 4 nutri-berries, home made birdie bread based on this recipe...
Here is another picture of my two eating dinner. They are a bit scruffy right now since they are going through a molt. Even though Hodgins was acting a lot like a male I am thinking that he is acutely a female since he still has his pearling but a few more months and I should know for sure.
