Feeding dove chick at night?

[strawberry_bat]

From an egg I found on the ground out in the open, I now have a newly hatched Eurasian collared dove. These guys are invasive and no one will take it, so I am going to give this a shot.

Should I start feeding this hatchling in 12 hours or sooner? Do they need to be fed at night?

Current plan is every 2 to 3 hours during the day, but info is mixed if nighttime feeding is also needed. Thanks!

Feed through the night for the first week but you can stretch the feeds to 4 hours apart.
After a week he can sit through the night 6-8 hours.
