How do you get a Chocobo Whistle?

[Crossblades]

This item could be useful in my travels. How do I get one?

Assuming you have a fully grown Chocobo; Go to San d'Oria Chocobo stables and speak to the 'Chocobo NPC' and he'll tell you something about requiring a bond with your Chocobo or something of the like. Now, go back to the stable where your Chocobo is kept and take your Chocobo for a walk, your Chocobo should turn away, and you'll be given the option to search for something (sometimes your Chocobo will catch you and you will have to take him for another walk to be able to search again). If you find it take it back to San d'Oria stables as proof of the bond between you and your bird and the 'Chocobo NPC' will reward you with a Chocobo Whistle.

Use it sparingly as each charge costs 1,000G, although the first 25 are free.

If you don't have a Chocobo, just say and I'll give you some info on that too.

just a precaution: it cost 1k gil for each charge to recharge.

So I have to raise my own Chocobo to get the whistle?

Ok, I guess I'll dedicate time to do this quest then. Thank you

I guess you don't have one then, to be honest I don't think it is worth the hassle of raising a Chocobo just to ride it, it costs gil, you have to check on it regulary and it takes 29 days to develop into a fully grown Chocobo. And if you're like me and decide it's too much of a burden to dedicate time to, he will end up with really poor stats.

In addition, the Chocobo Whistle hasn't had much practical use to me, although it would be good for getting out of that damned Yhoater Jungle I should imagine.

But really it's up to you, you may enjoy raising it, who knows.
