I only had him for 3 days and there aren't many dove articles on the web so I don't know if this is "normal behavior for him"
What he does is he seems always sleeping. He would sit on his perch and close his eyes and seems to just nap, even when I go near and stare at him he would just look back and 10secs later goes back to sleep. He doesn't fluff up his feathers and poo is solid but the dark part is green colored (don't know if this is normal or not). I haven't seen him do this since he looked pretty alert on Friday when I got him, but then again I wasn't home half the day on Sat cause I was working. He's came from an outside aviary and is 3 month old, according to breeder.
And when he's not sleepy he's most of the time grooming... so much feathers...
If you guys think he is sick I would take him to the vet, but right now I don't want to do that cause I don't want to stress him then he already is, so what do you guys think is going on?
