So who keeps doves? I used to keep diamond doves, i think they are a very cute little dove and a nice bird to breed. (lots of courtship dances) Peter |

Hi Peter, that is a good question, technically a Dove is a Pigeon and a Pigeon is a dove. It's based on the size that usually determines the name, the common pigeon (rock) or homer is a pigeon and a Diamond dove being small is a dove. Hope that makes sense. Thanks P.A
