Thanks! I need to bribe our Fluffies to pose again, LOL!

#2 and #3
A young fella who doesn't like his picture to be taken and Wakka sharing his treats with the little ones!

Another great question! They are not allowed. So far, there have been two AI entries, and both have been disqualified. If you see one that looks like it might be generated by AI, please report it.

Rule 4 says Perhaps we need to a new rule, lol.

Thanks for the clarification! You appear to have done a good job of weeding them out so far. ;-) And yeah, unfortunately, that probably needs to be specified in the rules eventually.

Young rooster in the feeder.

Entry 4: peekaboo!


hoping this fit the requirements because I have no idea how to check.

It meets the the requirements to advance to the first round of judging, but it doesn't fit the template very well, so it won't score high:

So I'd suggest you save this for when we do a "funny poses" contest, mark it as "not an entry", and find another picture to enter.

Young rooster in the feeder.

This one qualifies!
