You'll get great info but perhaps not time specific to your region so learn the nesting, breeding, break up, etc. Learn what they eat, where theyll nest as the area changes from seasonality things or farming for instance.
There's almost never a year and it used to really be that way hens didnt yelp crazy many mornings for a bit. Coyotes, bobcats have them quieter lately plus less birds but assume if youre in a learning stage there might be more to uncover.
If you hunt the same areas expand
The reason I made this post, is mostly a food for thought... We go in the woods and yelp, yet, we "never" (rarely, seldom...) hear it from hens themselves...
I still dont understand why you dont though I believe you

Box Calls / Re: Van Cise Box Appreciation

I appreciate looking at them and listening to the soundfiles, like you mentioned. Haven't owned one yet. The figured granadillo lids on his site right now are something else.

Box Calls / Van Cise Box Appreciation
Last post by paboxcall - January 25, 2026, 06:07:42 PM
Thought I'd start another thread just to show some Van Cise appreciation...Matt really does a sweet job of tuning these handled boxes. I visit his website often just to listen to him run them, hear those boxes spit feathers.

Got this call a year ago and super pleased. I've heard more than a few to decide for myself his figured maple boxes are pure turkey. And this call, with the PH lid, just excels in every way. Who else appreciates his handled boxes?
