Dove


Doves are very gentle natured birds. They do not bite or screech or cause any harm to other creatures. Doves are mellow, easy to tame & help our environment by eating seeds from weeds such as Ragweed.  Doves are very lovable & cuddly creatures that enjoy personal attention and petting. A perfect pet bird for any family.  It is difficult to understand why someone would want to hunt and kill such a peaceful creature.


Life span in the wild is 1.5 years for adults. This is pretty sad since doves lifespan in captivity can exceed 20 years.
