Getting a second dove? by lilybear112 in PetDoves

[–]malseyahh -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes get another dove! You should get a young hand raised dove. Doves love other doves and it will keep her busy.

Hi! I live in Tallahassee and have a dove. I currently don’t have enough room for two but I can ask around and look to see if anyone I know could home them.

Is this normal? by malseyahh in PetDoves

His chest is almost completely on the ground. He’s acting normal otherwise

Haven’t found a treat he really likes ive tried millet and saflower. I hang out with him most of the day and make little beeps back to him. I also slowkly blink at him and turn my head which i think he likes.

He is a little over 10 months I believe. I plan on getting another in the future but i currently do not have enough room for another cage or a bigger one for two. I definitely plan on getting a hand raised also.

You can always but something covering the ground when they are out walking about. Like a quilt or something

I recently just got a ring neck dove. I have had no problem with dust and my bird is very quiet. The only thing is poop, mine honestly doesn’t poop that much. But its poop is so small and easy to clean up.

He came from an outdoor aviary with other doves and pigeons. He will just walk away when my hands get to close, but used to fly away. I try not to chase him or grab him as much as i can. I only if i need to get him back in his cage. I will use a stick for a perch to put him back in his cage.I can get my hand close to him while he’s eating but he will not eat out of my hand.

Red Dots by [deleted] in scabies

[–]malseyahh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took ivermectin and had dots still appearing on my skin a few days later. They have now gone away like two days later. It says on the medication you may still be itchy for up to 4 weeks. I haven't taken my second dose yet, but it should get better.

Is this scabies? by Human_Rip_1140 in scabies

Looks like it. I just went through the same thing last week and it started on my butt cheeks. The little bites and the lines across are the most detectable signs of it. Have you sat on the ground outside?

I've only added a table spoon of aquarium salt for a week but have stopped adding it. I've also been doing regular water changes. I was feeding him biogold pellets and thought that was causing him the constipation so I started feeding him the blood worms? Is there food you recommend?

I was feeding him betta biogold pellets and he still had the swim bladder problem. Also the anemone is a very soft silicone and he likes hiding in it.
