    I would like some help here. My almost 2 yr old dove has been getting more mischievous! I have a little indoor garden growing with lots of veggies and poinsettia plants.

    Dove eggtopsy

    I’ve been struggling with poor hatchability with my two pair of Diamond doves. Usually the eggs die in the last two days of incubation. I break out all dead eggs to check what stage they are. I tossed the latest two eggs right into the incubator after they were laid, to see if we’re looking at...

    Aggressive dove or just a bossy male?

    Hello! I'm back with more questions about doves! 🤭 If anyone isn't familiar with my dove encounter, last year a dove just magically showed up in my chicken coop. Long story short, she's been with us since! I noticed that she was trying to "woo" my chickens.. (following them & bowing/cooing) so...

    Wild or domestic dove?

    This dove keeps showing up in the yard when I let my chickens out in the evenings. It lets me get closer than any wild dove & doesn't seem to be too skittish. It looks a bit too "tangerine" to be a wild one.. About this time last year we found a domestic dove, do you think this one is domestic...

    Pet dove has lump under butt

    Hey guys, I just noticed that my pet dove has a strange lump under his butt. It's not prolapse, and there's no blood in his stool. He seems to be fine, except for fluffing out the top part of his butt and panting a little. Any ideas what could be wrong.

    Ant problem in dove food!

    I have an outdoor enclosure for my dove. We've been having a TERRIBLE time with ants this year. I saw in order to keep them out of my chicken's food, you're supposed to sprinkle cinnamon in the feeder! It's been working wonders.. however I'm not sure that cinnamon is safe to use around doves...

    Escaped pet or wild dove?

    This dove has been sneaking around my chicken coop lately. Today I tried to get a closer look & she ended up going IN the coop!

    This little dove stops by everyday, don't know what to give it for food.

    This particular dove stops by everyday for about 4 times a day. Sometimes it brings a friend and they just sit on the railing there and coo. It did try to come down once but my rooster just ran straight for it confused and scared the dove off. Nonetheless it returned a few minutes later. I would...
