It seems that PetBrags for some reason jarbled some of my text in my previous post here.  It should read "Guinness World Record 2010" and not "+!@#$ss World Record 2010".

Hi Kathi,

 

First of all, let me reassure you that it is not a stupid question.  There's really no particular reason why I only have one dove; unless you count limited financial and space resources (currently I only have enough of those to take care of one).  Now, I'm curious:  is there a reason why you ask that particular question?  Maybe I can help answer another question you may have relating to this.

 

To answer your next question:  doves can live anywhere from 15 to 25 years with proper care and depending upon the species and sub-species of dove.  Some doves have been known to live longer; like, for example, Methuselah who is a white male collared dove born in April 1975, and owned by Manfred Meller of Harxheim, Germany.  I mention Methuselah because he holds the Guinness World Record 2010 for being the Oldest Dove!

 

If you have any other questions relating to Paz, please ask them here.  And I see you're a member of our Doves and Pigeons Group here on PetBrags, so if you have any questions about doves in general, you can ask them in that group.  For anyone that is interested in our group, you can access it at:  http://www.petbrags.com/group/dovesandpigeons

 

Thank you for the compliments on Paz, Kathi.  :-)

 

Sincerely,

 

Sal

Hi Sal:

This might be a stupid question but here goes,  is there some particular reason you only have one dove?  Another question, how long do they live?  Oh gosh, I could go on an on with questions but will leave it at that.  Paz, is beautiful.
