Hatching and Raising Bobs

[Robo]

I had a few, but my sd card won't work anymore. I lost pics of almost all of my bobs, my chuckars and my buff orpington roosters. I learned my lesson though. Always put pics on the computer. Here is a website with pics though.

Thanks!! Can they be tamed?

Sometimes, I had one that would come to me, but the rest would walk away.

Can chukars, quail, and pheasants be shown? How could I prepare them?

 

[Robo]

In some places they can. I don't know about where you live, but my local 4h puts on a show 2 time a year, and they will take all kinds of poultry. I am not in 4h but I still sell birds at the swap meets. As far as preparing them goes just give them good feed, and don't ever show them while they are in a molt.

I showed my quail at fair this year. Are peafowl loud?

 

[Robo]

If you consider a bullhorn quiet then no.

Personally I think they are the most annoying things known to man.

Guineas???

 

[Robo]

Sorry they are loud too. I had 20 chicks and they drove me crazy.
