I was thinking it looked fawner than any I have bred. But I only have normals at the moment. Have had silvers in the past. Don't seem to be any mutations round this side of the country?

Congratulations :clap: I'm going to put up some cup nests soon for my diamonds. Did the parents lay two eggs? If they did only lay 2 eggs I read on a website, (don't know if this is true or not) that if only one survives it's more likely to be a male.

They always put two eggs, rarely three.
Survive always the two turtledoves, to me has always been so, if given the proper nutrition everything goes well..
