Pig

Are they exhibition fantails or garden fantails? It will make a difference. I would suggest leaving them in for 3 weeks and then not feeding them the day before releasing them. Howver my Garden fantails escaped on day 2 and have stayed. Was VERY lucky i think.

Do you have a link for a website that will give me info like this? I am a lot newer to this than i realised. I shall be doing lots of research before the birds arrive. What are the chances of me being able to release Jacobins to live with my other doves?

What do you mean "clip" ? All i know what to do at the min is ring, feed/water and clean out. Sorry to be rubbish at this but would you consider please pointing me in the right direction

I am pretty new to keeping doves but am really enjoying it. I started with normal white garden doves and have had them sucsesfully breed twice now and sitting on another nest. I then purchased 2 garden fantails and the female is now sitting. I just ordered 2 white Jacobins which i am very excited about getting. I am struggling to find information on keeping Jacobins, are you able to help? Thanks Jon
