Ended 2025 BYC Calendar Photo Contest—We Need Your Pictures!

[casportpony]

When will the winners be announced?

Soon, lol.

 

[ChickenTenderKesha]

It’s like we’re on a very long road trip with constant “are we there yet?” inquiries coming from the back seat

I’m as egg-cited as the next person but the winners will be announced once they are chosen, patience is a virtue! There are bound to be some tough choices for the judges this year, all the entries were phenomenal, and there were a good few hundred of them too!

No rush for the calendar judges!! Once we get it I’m sure everyone is going to be stoked to see what photos were chosen, all the calendars before this one have been beautiful

Any results yet?

• Entry #4 •​

This is Janie, my Lavender Orpington. She is named after the nine-day Queen of England -- Lady Jane Grey. I have always looked up to her for her unwavering faith in the one true God.

My sister helped me out immensely. I wouldn't have been able to get this photo without her help.
