Just a friendly reminder to get those last-minute entries in!

Only 12 hours to go!
​

The spreadsheet has been updated! It's sorted by member name. If you don't see your entry, please let us know. If your entry has been disqualified (column L), the reason for disqualification is in column M. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Mark your calendars!

On September 12th, 2025, we will contact the top 25 via a conversation. In that conversation, you will be asked to fill out a Google Form. In that form, you will upload your image, enter the name, breed, sex & age of the chicken(s), and a snippet about your picture.

If selected, please note that we have a strict deadline, so kindly fill out the form ASAP to advance to the next round of finalists and potentially have your image featured in our calendar.
