We're in the deep south.. Griffin Georgia, USA. But it sounds the same... we are in dire need of rain too. The money we are having to spend on hay rolls has double since last year. Our pastures are eaten down to the roots!

Thanks for the site. Though we won't be needing it this time. Lucy is doing a wonderful job with her one squab. I can't believe the change in her... very quite, calm. Which says to me that they need to be breeders, something I'm not too sure we want to do. I've found a breeder here in Georgia. Think...

Ok, that is something I hadn't thought of. Why I don't know.... If we do start handfeeding after 3 wks how often do you need to feed? We have the handfeeding formual... wanted to be ready in case Lucy didn't feed. Just never thought of feeding after she started because we read they needed to be feed...

Yes, I think they are blue... Thanks. When do you band your babies? With doves we band around 5 or 6 days. Does that sound about right? and Yes. our birds get fresh veggies daily. But they seem to go back to eatting seeds about every other day. Does that make sense? Our bird don't seem too keen on a...

Thanks for the in put. No we don't plan on handfeeding. From what I've been able to find, handfeeding won't necessarily make hand taming any easily and with our schedules handfeeding is a big undertaking. Its seems as though they are feeding him/her well. When I've been peeking his crop is full and ...
