is there anything as adorable as this......

I'd like to wish my 2 Doves Studdmuffin and Bess a MAZEL TOV! on the hatching of these 2 chicks.
Mom left the nest to get some seed and I snapped the photo......they're about 1 week old

Very cute little guys! Starting to grow feathers.
Are both parents attentive? Is it their first clutch?

 

[drmolarmagic]

No Studdmuffin is the father of most of the chicks this is their 3rd clutch and they are very attentive. Bess is one of my stars in my dove productions but has been out of the show since she laid this clutch.

and they are very attentive to their chicks......I feel like a proud grandpa with each clutch

How are your doves doing now? They must be nearly feathered out by now.

I really love at this age how they still haven't grown into their beaks. These 2 are inseparable! they always perch and stay near each other. They are now banded yellow for this generation and since they are stuck together all the time I'm naming them Eng & Cheng like the Famous side show Simease twins!

Its funny that when they first hatch the beaks are always so big, then as they grow they seem too small! They do look so sweet! I wish you could magic me some! How many do you have?
