Hello... (I'm new here and I've never really posted a forum/thread before, so excuse my amateurishness)
I got a new Ring-neck Dove last week on Dec. 28th. I got her so my Tangerine Dove would have someone to interact with other than me and my finch. They get along alright and after I woke up this morning I saw them kissing and then they mated. I thought it'd be a nice experience to see birds raise young again (last time I've seen it happen is with my parakeets back in 2006).
Would it be safe to use timothy hay for their nesting box? It's a Kaytee brand that I'd originally bought for my Sulcata Tortoise to eat, but we have a lot left.
Also, name suggestions for my new dove would be nice :3 Here's a picture of her: (sorry for the bad quality)
