The bob's were flighty, noisy, and would spaz out anytime I would go near them, couldn't reach my hand in the cage with a few coming after it, they were just plain mean.

One of my swap partners from MN just hatched out 10 of 13 eggs I sent her, it is so interesting to see what hatches from your eggs after going thru the mail that far away.

Okay was just looking up the cots and jumbos ( and they look like a pidgeon) do the cots whistle? I really like the bob bob white song

Okay so their call does sounds like " look at me, look at me" instead of bob bob white

Quote: I would call it more of a screech than a whistle, i have a pen of youngster,s about 4 to 5 weeks old, If you would like to try some. good thing is if you find you do not like them you just fry them up. I have processed any where from 8 weeks on up, 12 to 14 seems to be the best for size, after I get some eggs for the next batch.
