You should fly to Australia and see zebra finches and diamond doves in the wild massive flocks appear regularly at cattle station watering spots in the outback! In Townsville they have the peaceful doves, they’re everywhere like sparrows & pigeons in other cities! Very similar to a diamond dove but has a blue ring around the eye and is stripy not spotty! Aussie birds breed really fast because the conditions here can go from parched desert to inland sea in minutes! Most of the smaller birds can pull a clutch of 2-4 every 30 days or less provided conditions are right! Nest sharing is common with Australian birds!
Does your little diamond doves eat those field peas out of your dove mix? and thanks for your suggestions there’s not of info out for these beautiful birds
Yeah they eat almost all the seeds except for what they spill, I’ve started mixing some Finch seed mix and they seem to be enjoying that more. Thanks for watching!
Overtime your bird can develop problems in their digestive track. Not always the case, but it’s best practice to provide the grit. Thanks for watching!

Where did you buy your feeders
I get most of my things from Amazon
What happens if one does not give the diamond doves mineral grit?
