My dove and sausage gumbo (title changed)

Guys, what is the best stock to use for a dove and sausage gumbo?
Not making my own this time. Was thinking chicken would be appropriate but wondering if maybe veal mixed in would give it some more earthiness.

I don't waste doves in a gumbo. I brown those puppies.

We use chicken stock in dove and duck gumbo.

Chicken stock is a very neutral stock that is used for most things. I would use it. If you have some veal stock that isn't going to hurt by any means.

That's the plan. Going with chicken stock.

I use a 50/50 mix of chicken and veal stock for all my non seafood gumbos.
I really like that extra layer of flavor the veal adds.

Now to bring it to a simmer. I used a brine on the dove, but afraid it might have made it too salty. Hopefully 2 hours + in the pot will suck out some of that salt.

Drop a peeled whole potato in it. That'll take out some salt.

Or just do like Froggy eating the saltines and drink more.

If you find it unbearably salty, just add a bit of water to replace the stock as it simmers down. With that said, it will probably be fine once you add it to rice, assuming you don't go crazy and salt your rice.
