NAW ABSOLUTELY USELESS.  ;D ;D ;D

 

Ours do fly out but that's because they were bred here and are really hand tame, they have no homing instinct at all, but are quite territorial, males can be quite dominant and tolerate their young but not a strange male, they would fight to the death. I have both white and ringneck at the moment

I think it just where you buy them and what people call them, but I think they are all the same, maybe different strains :-/

 

By the way they do not Amtrak too well they are very easily stressed

Java dove is just another name for a white Barbary dove. Heres some photos of mine. And they should be kept in aviaries and not let out.
