Here's the 2 new doves hatched out on the 25th. The one on the right is a new color I haven't seen from my breeders.Must be a browwn gene in someone.

ive been looking to get some diamond doves, but no one in my area seems interested in parting with a pair or two even ( hoping theyd be great with my finches and budgie flock, but guessing they couldnt free fly like my budgies do? also my finches, and tiels i used to have, nested in any/everything).

i could never find decenty priced or healthy ones, but if i had, id probably have had them as pets, possibly instead of pigeons, if they were easier to tame and keep than ringneck doves maybe. originally before got back into pigeons, was going to have my aviary set up with button quail, diamond doves, zebra finches, and budgies. only ever found the budgies, finches, and tried ringneck doves, and cortnix quail. also oddly cockatiels worked out well in with them also, among others..

These are diamond doves not pigeons.
