Open Contest 2026 BYC Calendar Photo Contest - We Need Your Pictures!

[urlocalcrazychickenlady]

There’s a gallery spreadsheet in the first post with everyone’s entries

You can buy calendars from the store.

Hope this helps!

Thanks so much!

Great question, and thanks for asking! Earlier in this thread I wrote:
"Whether something fit the template was proving to be too subjective, so we decided not to disqualify any entries based on how well they fit the template.

If you want to see how your entries look in the template, you can see them here:
2026 Calendar Side by Side

Entries will be disqualified if:

• There is a person or body part that cannot be cropped out
• The picture is a screenshot
• It's not a chicken
• The picture is too small

You can see the status of your entries here:

This is what you picture might look like:

Ok, thanks. Looks like she works, then!

I also have another question…filters aren’t allowed on the pictures, correct?

This is the original:

This has the filter.

Great question. This sort of edit is okay.

Regarding the two pictures, they are not the same. One is IMG_9654, the other is IMG_9653. I'd be interested in seeing a comparison of the same two images.

@casportpony
I have tried multiple times over the past few days to upload my original full size images. I can upload smaller images and screenshots, but the large full size images off my DSLR will not upload to BYC.

Can you upload them to my Google Drive?

Here is my picture. I don't know why it's blowing a little. It looks better on my camera.

I sent you a different picture. If I don't reply back before this event ends, then keep the images.
