I was given a very young ring dove who was supposedly kicked out of "home " by male parent becasue of being a male. He/she is an adult now less than a year, lives alone in my office. While I was searching for info on how to take care he/she ( now its name) in the net I played a rd mating coo and ever since he/she is obsessed with nest building and cooing for a mate. HE/she does not puff up or bow whem ccoin to his image in the mirror and sit in the nest flutering a bit and cooing. Male of Female? How do I aliviate the apparent anxiety other than a breeding mate. I read 2 females live happy without breeding: I can't tend to breeding habits year rround>. Appreciate answer and any help keeping the little thing happy. Concerned Ownwr

To feed a baby ringneck dove, you will need to purchase a commercial hand-feeding formula specifically designed for doves. Mix the formula with warm water according to the instructions on the package. Feed the baby dove using a syringe or a spoon every 2-3 hours during the day, making sure not to overfeed as this can cause health issues. As the baby dove grows, you can gradually decrease the feeding frequency and transition to solid seeds and grains.
