Diamond dove newbie

[calicocows]

Hi! I’m thinking about adding diamond doves to my small menagerie. Does anyone have cage recommendations? I’m finding a lot of conflicting info. Also does anyone know of reputable breeders or rescues with diamond doves? And with an air purifier, can they live in a bedroom shared with Guinea pigs?

This is also a question about finches, which I’m also considering

I have 5 Diamond doves that sleep in a cage 30"x18"x18". I also have an aviary built outside my bedroom window that they can fly around in during the day when it's warm (they LOVE to sunbathe)! If it's too cold out, I let them fly around my room

I have a few society finches and a pair of zebra finches too: they have their own cage that they sleep in at night, but they all get along with the doves in the aviary just fine.

As far as breeders, I found my doves on craigslist from a lady who's aviary was overcrowded (if you let them, they will hatch babies non stop. Same deal with the finches).

Hope that helps some!
