I don't tend to like most popular pop stars but Katy Perry is a bit of an exception, she has a genuinely good voice and while I agree with bigwillq that her stuff is still rather cheesy I don't mind it. I suppose it doesn't hurt that she's sexy as hell

Your doves (including the babies) are awesome. The video was interesting, I agree with Locut0s, Katy Perry is an exception to the usual insipid pop princesses. Thanks for posting, otherwise I would never have watched.

mine are the worst parents in the world. An egg hatches and as soon as it get a few pin feathers they ignore it. I managed to save one but it died at 3 months old.

I can still recognize our newest one, he is dark brown. The rest of the flock is gray.

There are several new eggs every week but only one hatched in over a year.

and then the darn thing died on me when it was about 3 months old. I don't think I would want to do it again, it was difficult. But the silly parents are now getting off the nest just a day or two before they are ready to hatch. They are crazy delightful birds though.

I've lost 3 of my doves since we moved last year.
One was Stevie, the mother of my flock. She quit laying eggs for a few months after Super Storm Sandy rolled through. She never hatched another one. I think she was old when I brought her home.
As for the other two, nothing seemed wrong.
I remove the eggs that are abandoned after a two or three days. Maybe my flock isn't meant to be over a dozen.

I really do enjoy having 'em. I'm really glad the flock isn't growing as I hate the idea of giving away the offspring as I did in the beginning. Family is family. I worry about them. Call me the crazy featherhead.
