Robots of Venery

Terms of Venery (Collective Nouns):
A group of unicorns is called a blessing. (how often does that happen?)
Twelve or more cows (kine) are known as a flink.
A group of frogs is called an army.
A group of rhinos is called a crash.
A group of kangaroos is called a mob.
A group of whales is called a pod.
A group of ravens (or crows) is called a murder.
A group of larks is called an exaltation.
A group of owls is called a parliament.

So, once we begin hunting robots for sport, what shall we call a grouping of them?
A 'can of robots'?
A 'bismuth of robots'?
A 'bottle of robots'?
A 'leet of robots'?

Most of my ideas come from my amusement at the image of a small container full of struggling robots - eager, in their way, to get out, but too stupid to know how.

But, robot-hunting could be a lucrative endeavor in the near future. Get some woods and some hillbillies and toss in a robot. Everyone wins!
