There is one egg in the nest. Normally doves with lay two white eggs on consecutive days. The eggs should hatch about 14 days after being laid. The young dove will leave the nest 11 to 13 days after hatching. Most dove nests are unsuccessful.
Storms cause the most nest losses, followed by predators.
If a nest is lost, the parents will begin another nest within a few days. Also doves are not territorial. They will tolerate nests close to theirs. Contact us and we will help you find answers or solutions to your questions.
