How much is a dove?

Doves vary greatly in price depending on the breed and whether or not they are purchased as pets or for food. Pet doves can range from as little as $20 for a common breed like a ringneck dove to over $1,000 for a rare or exotic breed like a Nicobar pigeon. Doves sold for food or hunting purposes are typically much less expensive, with prices starting at around $5 per bird. Prices may also vary depending on the time of year and the region where the doves are purchased.
