- Our experience owning pet doves, Pickle and Peanut. Peanut is a male white ringneck dove, and Peanut is a female wild pied ringneck dove. We are slightly obsessed with these feathered angels, and they’re the perfect pets for our family. They’re both less than a year old, and with an average life span of 12-15 years, we look forward to many years with them. We purchased Pickle from a local pet store and Peanut from strombergschickens.com. I’m not a dove expert, but would be happy answer questions about my experience with dove husbandry.

Doves are amazing pets. They are curious, smart and affectionate.
Doves and pigeons have always been so pretty to me. I love their temperament too. I've always wanted a bird but didn't want to deal with the noise. I always found it neat that rock pigeons were the first domesticated bird too, over 5000 years ago!
I have two peacock doves. On my opinion their sounds are lovely and cosy ☺️
they are so beautiful and its lovely to see all animals receiving this kind of love and affection.
Thank you!! We adore them ♥️
yeh ive fallen for them, they are such cute little chookies! very innocent lil characters, spotted doves come to my garden, im trying to train them to chill but they are very jumpy because of the cat but i love the cat too!
Pigeon and doves are the first domesticated birds.
Really?
@@iamkyleclimer there's debate over whether rock doves or chickens were domesticated first. Ringneck doves were domesticated much later than rock doves though, which is what we colloquially refer to as pigeons most of the time. Scientifically pigeon and dove refer to the same group.
Your doves look just like my two doves. They are beautiful 🤩
I really want doves. I'm glad to hear this about them. I honestly didn't want my dove in a cage unless they sleeping. During the day it's on the shoulder and on there stand.
I just ordered orange ring neck dove pair from Stromberg because of your video. I am so excited and will keep you updated on my order.
How do you like your doves?? Just saw an orange one on the stromberg site and they look gorgeous
I love doves! I had a ringneck named Flossie (aka Chica) and just loved her sweet nature! So precious!!
Dovies are the sweetest birds ever
THE CUTEST BIRDS I HAVE EVER SEEN! Omg the basket I can’t ❤❤❤❤❤
Wild doves continue to nest in the same area of our backyard.(I have no idea how many generations, it's been happening pretty steadily for over 30 years) They are very sweet birds. I'm glad you uploaded this video and shared your experiences. ☮️
Beautiful, thank you so much for posting. I'm inspired to get my sons a male and female dove.
Beautiful story! SOOOO happy for you!!!!! Very well & thoughtfully said! Very realistic!!!!! Pickle & Peanut are very lucky to have you as pet owner!!!!! I wish all pets had such great owners! Not all are this fortunate! Kudos to you! Beautiful doves! Very inspirational video! Most if not, all birds poop frequently bc of their quick metabolism. (And what? Humans don't?) Big deal reg. cleaning up hard wood floors after them! Way easier than dogs! Don't have to walk them in the middle of freezing winter!!!! Great spot for play stand! Much love!!!!!!
beautiful yard and doves!
i just got a wild pied male from strombergs yesterday! to go with my wild pied female from majestic, he is very calm i was afraid he wouldnt be tame but he is just as tame as my hand raised female.
I’m glad to see a calm dove from Stromburgs! I’ve been thinking about buying from them for a while, but was never sure if they would be tamed enough to keep as pets!
Wow amazing this year I have guess 2 doves on my porch and they build a nest had 2 babies I love the sound they make!
I do Harrison’s with my diamond dove , your doves are beautiful 😍
Thank you!! I’ve heard diamond doves are SO sweet!!
Wonderful video
Very nice hobby pet beutiful white dove and pied dove❤🎉
White Doves are the symbol of The Holy Spirit, even at the time of Jesus they knew that doves was wonderful birds. Peaceful and harmonious….
Yes they are 😊😊😂
What was website name where I could order online?
Yes they are. 🙏
Agreed mine is always chill and sometimes she coo and loves to be peted😊
You are correct. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, trustworthiness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no Torah. (Law)
Galatiyim (Galatians) 5:22-23 TS2009
Beautiful doves 💖 I have also two doves 💖🕊️🕊️
Yeah, I do the same thing....I have synthetic floors but expensive ones so I can just throw chemicals at then...I live alone in a small NYC apt, it's nice and easy to keep clean but my baby poops a lot lol
They are lovely and so is your home. I like that corner with big windows facing the backyard. You are blessed to not be doing apartment living. All live ones poop. I guess if one wants a bird that doesn't poop, it's going to be taxidermy specimen. Every 7 minutes is high pooping frequency. Lucky for us, we are 1 to 3 times a day though never enjoyable. If I could invent one thing, it'd be a toilet that sucks the air out from the rim immediately after it runs water into the bowl.
I love my dove as well 💕😍😍😍
I've gotten 17 doves from age 10-12 and now I only have 9 doves
3:12 Give her strips of paper, or break uncooked spaghetti and give them to her. Poor girl is stressed when she is having an egg. Also carry the water to her, she will drink it from your hand. I've had mine for years.
I stopped feeding mine that brand you mentioned. She likes regular seeds MIXED with pellets. Safflower seeds are her favorite, and she goes crazy for bird peanuts (ZERO salt, and always break them in small pieces for them) and they LOVE tiny pieces of CHEDDAR cheese. As treats only as it's high in fat like peanuts, but high in protein and calcium.
Hi Brit, thank you for sharing great information, would you mind sharing with me where can I order a cage same or similar to yours? I’m racing a baby mourning dove and like to have an open concept bird cage.
Mine is over 17 years old & such an easy pet to clean up after. My min pin is obsessed but can’t get near her & so she just ignores him. Not a safe mix tho because if loose the min pin would hurt her.
So cute. Love them. I wonder why doves mostly stay in green areas while blackish pigeons like the city.
Came in the mail? Hopefully not UPS ground. That would have been a rough ride. Now on the serious side. How did they package the birds and how did they get air during transport?
Hi! Your doves are beautiful! I have just one question: why the mottled one has full wings but the white one has clipped wings? Thank you!
Great question!!! We purchased the white one from a breeder who’d clipped them. His wings have grown out now and he can fly!
@@brit1859 Thank you! 😁
Do you only give them pellets or do you also give them seeds as a snack? I also recommend you give them grit which are crushed yo oyster shells or granite that helps them break down their food since they didn't have teeth
They get Harrison’s pellets and seeds as a treat.
They are crazily soft
Omg where did you get that grass nest, do you have a link to it
Is this your first bird ever? Do you recommend them for beginners?
Ohh I use Kaytee race feed, and nuts, and egg shells crushed fine for grit, she has half of a wing missing and about a year old. She's getting close to me
Awww, how sweet. I bet she’s a wonderful pet in a small space. They’re just so sweet ♥️
Also, your techniques are identical to mine, I even have a mat on my bed, they DO poop on the sides of their nest because it's oert of how they construct them in the wild, however your right they ftmp don't, he will go to the side of my bed and let it drop, I can even hear a little "squirt" "splat" sometimes if it's really quiet ...yeah it's gross but it's actually not anywhere neer as t harmful as people think
Can you show their flight cage? And what brand are the cage and the play stand here?
Back in the 90's, I use to raise and breed diamond doves which are the smallest doves in the world. I've had white doves too but never tried to breed them so I'm not as familiar with them. However, it has always been my understanding that only the male coos because only the males of the diamond doves do. Correct me if I'm wrong but you stated that the white one was male and the pied one was female, yet in video the pied one was cooing. So now I'm confused. My white doves that I had never cooed so I assumed that meant they were female. 🤷♀️🤷♀️
We have 17, actually have one named peanut.
That’s funny!
I rescued a dove it was not fully grown , it has been a week now , i have kept the bird in a cage and it is doing well. I let it out of the cage everyday aswell. I don't know if I should keep it or release it back . The bird has grown comfortable to the cage after staying in the room for a while she goes by in the cage without my efforts . Can doves survive alone ? Or should I get another bird to keep her company in the cage ? Please help me with this .
What do you do though with the fertile eggs? I would feel awful to just get rid of them! :(
Welcome to my garden I have some birds too
It is important to be carefull with open windows. My neibourhs' dove flu away and did not found. 🙏
Can I just ask, after you paired them, did he want to stop being snuggled by you? As I noticed, he kept edging away from your hand.
Yes, once paired they are much more focused on their mate, but they still accept snuggles and are easily approached. They still allow me to pick them up and snuggle them ♥️
My question is: is poop liquid kind of like pigeons or is it a little more solid, I've seen some poop kind of tiny solid stuff so I'm not sure.
I'm hesitating haaard between canari, cockatiel and dove
Both? But typically theyre more solid.
One of my doves is more active so drinks more water and has more liquid. The other is more average and its poop is usually solid
@@Nightmareannimations aight ty
Sometimes usually about the size of a pea and mushy until dries. Once it dries, it is solid.
Cant believe they sent it IN THE MAIL
I'd be furious, I never let my girl go by herself any where, poor things
Is it safe to keep them in a large cage witg their toys when at school but spend lots of time after echool and on weekends
They don't need a huge cage if you don't keep them in it. So long as you don't have another pet that will prey on them, they can free roam just fine.
Do you let them out of the house? And do they come back?
We’re they tame like this when you got them?
hope the eggs hatch , this video was on🔥
Do they try to fly around the house, or just stay on their perch? I’ve had mine for a week and they keep trying to fly all over. I’m considering clipping their wings but I don’t know if they will settle down once they’re used to being here. They are also only 2 months old.
NOOOO! I HOPE YOU READ THIS.
NEVER CLIP A BIRDS WINGS.
They are NOT like parrots.
DOVES and many other birds WILL hurt themselves AND it is NOT good for them to clip. It will HOLLOW out the wing structure. DO NOT DO THIS EVER.
They need to fly and walk for proper health!
what if u have a few cats around the house that also go outside but it’s not ideal to let the bird out of cage to fly around house?
So beautiful!! Are they very dusty?
They do produce a lot of dander.
@@brit1859birds have a vitamin water (cockatiel blend) that is good for doves and it reduces dander.
What color babies would they have?
How do you handle the pooping? Can they be trained to go in a certain spot? Or do they just go all over the house lol
they sell diapers for them, called pigeon pants!
Also do you know if they can be potty trained like some birds?
They can be potty trained to some extent. I’ve seen other people do it. The issue is, they poop about every 7 minutes, so it’s virtually impossible to get them to their potty area that frequently.
I've got a pigeon
Where do you find some doves?
www.strombergschickens.com/?gclid=Cj0KCQjw852XBhC6ARIsAJsFPN3tZdrT8vF2cx2ZCD9ptPjuqRm_QzQl86nKxOBXpZgBUGCTutmdB48aAlerEALw_wcB
I have one but mine is blue looking
Do you let them outside?
No, I’m worried I wouldn’t be able to get them back.
Burd are awesome , the only big problem is they poop Everywhere and theyr poop can give disease to human
Looks like the female is calling her mate over to mate lol
Are they loud like parrets?
Not at all. They do like to coo like pigeons but there are none of those ear shattering noises like a lot of parrots.
@@savagewaifu4694 👍
I have had a male ring neck dove for 25 years and he was pretty loud in his youth. Now he is like a rooster on low volume.
I didn’t know u can order them online??? I wanted to order mines online if I can’t find them in the pet store? I thought ordering them online a scam
I ordered her from www.strombergschickens.com/ :-)
We breed and sell Ringneck Doves of all colors. All are gender tested and hand-tamed by me to be sweet and cuddly. We do ship all over the USA. They are wonderful birds. 🥰
@@majesticdovesaviaryllc1107 oh lovely that’s good😊.. because I’m looking all over for a ring neck.. a white one.. I heard they make really good affordable pets.. I looked up strombergschicken and they got a lot of bad reviews.. so I’m not to sure about ordering from them and the shipping is a lot of money.. whats you’re website? So I can check it out
@@majesticdovesaviaryllc1107 never mind I found your website ..do you guys deliver right to my door?
@@taradevi8695 Could you post their website here the majestic doves one? did you order from them?
A pet that doesn’t pose a threat to children but would a children pose a threat to the dove 🧐
Very valid point. This is why our kids’ interactions with them are very supervised.
@@brit1859💯💯💙💙💙💙 HAPPY TO HEAR THIS
Can you still send messages?
Try giving them RAW ground up egg shells instead of the cooked ones.
Do they eat fruit
Pellets are more recommended to be safe, some fruits and vegetable are ok but doves do not like them so much.
I own diamond doves as well and they like KALE, always organic and blended very fine. Certain foods are POISON to birds.
Do you have a Facebook account?
You have to catch doves, I just kiss my spouse and they appear
but when you take the eggs they be sad 💔🥺 just make them bring 2 or 4 babies that will make them more happy
We’ve let them raise 2 babies so far ♥️.
@@brit1859
Thank you for your kindness 🙏
Are they really as much of an enjoyable, cuddly companion pet for kids as a cat or dog??? I wouldn't believe it. A cat is perfect and has shown that they actually impart some allergy resistance to children.
They’ve been absolutely wonderful pets for our kids. :) Kids have to be very gentle with them, but our kids have an beautiful relationship with them.
It's sad
I mean taking their eggs
Not really. They have it awesome this way or the other, in nature…. Yeah, not so much. Keyword: birds of prey.
so what would be the alternative, if you want male and female? 2-5 times around 2 hatchlings a year? what do you do with them? euthanize them? Worse option than just crushing or eating the (yet inanimate) eggs. sell (yeah, that isn’t that easy) all hatchlings every time? Still a mess, because they have to be raised (who buys a couple day old dove hatchlings?), also selling in general really isn’t trivial… so in the end it’s just more and more doves - which is exactly what we want to avoid.
You put fake eggs back (which is important, otherwise they get stressed out and lay more and more to counteract the stealing), they are fine, if the hatching “doesn’t work” they’re also fine.
@@TomJacobW Thats good for you and not good for others. I think its tragic to have pet birds. Their meant to be free and fly high in the sky. Birds of prey will get some, its not a pretty sight to see a Crow snatch a baby Dove from a nest, but they will at least be free to roam. You wouldnt understand unless some other apex predator took you and made you a pet. Buy buy freedom and the strength to survive.
Hey just saying petting doves on the back makes the bird think it’s mating so just don’t do that.
Only parrots think that, not doves.
Gently on the chest, feet and neck area recommended.
