Me thinks the calendar has gone commercial to sell more copies because not one of these photos was on the site months ago when I voted.tongue


My picture was of the chicks I hatched this spring - I am definately not a professional! lol  I though many of the photos were very "homey".

Home of the world's cutest dachshund, one crazy blue heeler, two cats,
              one fat pony, and many (but not too many!) chickens

              Can anyone tell me, how many are too many chickens?

One of my photos made the initial cut, and I assure you I am not a professional! I've never made a dime off of my photos. And the chicken in question is very much a family pet in my backyard flock of 7. We 'cuddle' daily and there isn't anything even remotely commercial about it. smile

I had a nightmare last night that I ordered a TON of calendars and when they arrived I realized I forgot to change the cover so it still said "2011 BYC Calendar" and I forgot to add the text captions inside the calendar for each picture.   I was SERIOUSLY freaking out!!!

lol....Nifty-Chicken  I hate those kind of dreams too.  ~ Just relax,  everything will be fine.   I haven't been a member with BYC for very long, but I'm impressed with all your great efforts and dedication to the BYC Website.  You and the people who help with the BYC Website ARE doing a Great Job.  There's always gonna be somebody with too much extra time on their hands to find something to pick a part/complain about.  So don't stress, keep up the good work.  Thanks for having the Best place to find ALL the Information Needed to raise Back Yard Chickens, Ducks, ect..... cool    ~Julie~

You know, those pics are all so fantastic, and suitable for framing, that I'll bet many wouldn't even notice if the year was wrong!!!

Wow, that's harsh.   My photo was of my two chicks that were hatched by my broody Cochin hen, in my own backyard.   I am by no means a professional, I just take tons of photos and I happen to have a great camera!
