Ended 2023 BYC Calendar Photo Contest—We Need Your Pictures!

[CaliforniaMountainChicks]

Hi! The spreadsheet says all 8 of my photos are qualified but the 4 that I want officially entered are images; 1149 (Molly), 1145 (Persephone), 1144 (Zoe), and finally 1143 (Polly). Thank you! Excited to see what the calendar will look like and good luck to everyone! There were some very amazing pictures entered in this contest!

I sized it to 3000x2000px @ 300 dpi. I can certainly resize it if you let me know the dimensions.

You're welcome!

I absolutely love her. Why can't my chickens be this clean? Also, nice song in purple words.

Thanks!

All of your entries have been entered in the spreadsheet here:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1D1qhOY4RM2pFLh9FolJOMfEk_etZM009p0CZJi7noUc/edit?usp=sharing

Please let us know if yours isn't there or if we made a mistake.

Regarding contest timing, judging, etc.

1. All entries are entered into a spreadsheet as they are submitted & uploaded to an album in the Gallery.
2. Once the contest closes, our team will go through and filter out all the submissions that don't meet the calendar requirements (takes about a week after the deadline for submissions).
3. Our team will rate all of the pictures that meet the calendar requirements and select the top 30 pictures.
4. The top 30 finalists will be contacted via a conversation and asked to fill out a Google Form. There they will enter the name of the chicken, the breed of chicken, and a snippet about their picture. They will also upload their original image(s).
5. Once the pictures have been uploaded to the Google Form, our team will review them and select the final 13 images that will be printed in the calendar (about a week).
6. The images go into the design and printing process and arrive at our store (about 3-5 weeks).
7. We hope to have the calendars in our store by the end of October!

Thanks again, and good luck everyone!

Anyway you can sort that spreadsheet alphabetically? I don’t have the app on my phone to do it.

Thanks Love all the photos
