Diamond Dove

Question
How do you determine the sex of the bird?

Answer
Male Diamond Doves have thick eye rings (and these rings are red and/or orange in color). This can sometimes be hard to determine unless you have another bird to compare to. The birds must also be mature (at least 6 months old).

I hope this helps answer your question.
