  • These ringneck chicks are just 5 days old. Ringneck doves make great parents and do all the work raising their young. Your job is to keep fresh water and food in the cage at all times.
    I own a white dove release business and these birds will be used as display birds. White pigeons are used during the releases. Check out my Facebook page and give it a Like

    I love watching my doves. They both take turns taking such good care of the eggs. The baby boy got the boot from the cage after about a month. The mama, Lenya, loves to watch UA-cam videos about doves with me♥

      Thanks for the comment. I just wish they weren't so prolific. Seems like their always breeding.

      +Dave Sherva how long can it take up to until the 2nd egg is laid? I had a homer that laid an egg on the flat ground near a stack of hay. is this something that I shld be worried about? I dont want the eggs to be trampled on n break.

    • @DaveSherva
      @DaveSherva  8 років тому +1

      +Jampee Saenthongkham The second egg is laid about 2 days later. Generally younger or less dominant pairs would lay their eggs on the floor. Do you have enough nesting boxes available? I had a pair that used the ground all last year with no problems. If the egg is bad the parents will push it out of the nest. I'd wait for the 2 nd egg to be laid and watch what they do.

      +Dave Sherva yes dave I do. do u have fbk? Ill send u the pic. there is a stack of hay right next to the egg. im hoping maybe it just rolled off the haystack next to it and not fell from the nest. I want to inspect the egg for cracks but how can I do it without touching the egg. I heard once u touch the egg it will abandon them . is that true?

      Thanks for the comment. I got lucky with these two as parents. I will say the male does have an attitude problem towards other birds. He wants everybody to know he's the boss. How many birds to you have Trisha ?
