They are pretty for doves. Good luck with the babies!! Is this your first "clutch" or have you bred them before?
Congratulations Baby Chicks are COOL!!!

This is the first fertile clutch. They are taking good care of the babies.

Wow, those ones look a lot different than the ones at our local zoo. Ours are white/grey with a black ring.

The domestic ringneck dove is descended from the African ring dove.

Re: They hatched!
No, I don't know how, and I don't have the time. I wouldn't want to accidentally make them aspirate the food anyway.. I know no one to teach me how to do it.
Ringneck doves tame easily anyhow, and they are such excellent parents, I'll let nature take it's course.
