All hand raised since nestlings. Hand tamed. Hand fed during weening, and often before that (as young as 10 days old). All finger perch. Most perch on arms and shoulders. Sweet, cuddly, inquisitive, playful & interactive.... (read more) Males coo & laugh the most. All very healthy. Fed a diet of a variety of seeds, fresh veggies & egg. They are handled, cuddled & get flight time pretty regularly. If you want them for pets, these are perfect! But will make good breeders & parents. 1 brother & sister were very loving surrogates to 1 lucky girl! 2 of the 4 egg layers are very dedicated nest attendants.
Not for release! That is cruel! Well trained rock pigeons are the release birds, NOT domestic doves!
Mom is tangerine pearl & dad is white/platinum.
Doves live about 20-25 years, so be prepared for a time commitment. Requires daily water & food dish cleaning, daily enclosure cleaning & regular perch cleaning & environment free of pollutants (ie: incense, candles, smoking, Teflon, etc). I care about these sweet beauties, so please be sure you have a safe environment & can & will provide adequate care.
$75-$90 each.
Discount for multiples.
All my doves are siblings, so not recommended for breeding with each other. Get a second one from another family for breeding. Or get 2 from the same sex so they will have company! If you want to breed doves, please be aware of what that entails and that doves are very prolific breeders. A single dove is fine as a pet, but be sure you have time to provide it regular companionship. They are social creatures!

I recently shipped doves for my 1st time, and having gone through the process, I now feel more confident doing so. So, if you are in the US, I don't mind mailing them. It's an almost 2 day process. PS- Having an existing business in e-commerce, I am able to get discounted USPS shipping labels and pass on those savings to you.
