Can anyone tell me anything about these birds? I have just purchased my first one yesterday and am so excited. How can I tell if its a he or a she?
I bought it as I love the sound they make. So far it has been silent.......guess its getting used to its new home. Do only males make that nice cooing?
It is in a cage next to my ringneck doves for company. I think I want to buy a mate for it, but have no idea how to sex them!!!! If I end up with 2 of the same sex will they fight?
Also what do they like to eat apart from the dove mix and millet? I give crushed oyster shell and small grit, with cuttlebone scraped over it. Also vitamins in the water 2 or 3 times a week. The cages are outside and the dove can sunbath in natural sunlight....but also has lots of shade.
Thanks for any advise! I can not find much on the internet about them.
