Oddly enough after a swift dose of high speed lead they seem to go quiet again I have to be carefull though cos my Mrs feeds the damn things Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zek 0 Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 I've seen young ones just left the nest in January/February. When I read the title of your thread I thought 'collared dove' Zek. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gnipper 6,019 Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 I've not noticed any wild birds nesting but i've got a pair of canary laying and another feeding a chick, never kept them before until a few months ago so the nest building took me by surprise. My mate who's had em a few years said you won't get them to breed in a cage too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
