Ring-neck doves are docile and friendly. They do not peck at a person; they are not predatory birds, they are seed eaters. They are not flighty,which means they come out of the cage and sit in the same place for long periods. They are easily trained to step onto your finger, but prefer not to ride around on a shoulder. They coo throughout the day and the night, from time to time, even if the cage is covered for darkness.

How much would a dove cost?

Common doves like Ringnecks will sell at a pet store for about $25-35. From a breeder they will be about $5-10. Of course this is depending on type of dove. More exotic doves can cost a couple hundred. But ringnecks are quite lovely and affordable. There are pied and normal ringnecks that I know of that are sold for the low prices between $5-35. A turtle dove could range from $40-50 and a plane dove around the price of a ringneck.
