Winter Photo Contests
Chilly Coop Contest!
Ends February 28th, 2025​

Welcome to BYC's Chilly Coop Contest. Some coops are purchased kits, and some are custom-crafted. Some coops are made of recycled wood, and some are painted. One thing that all of our coops share in common is a place for our feathered friends to lay their eggs and to keep their fluffy butts safe and warm in the winter. We want to see those cozy cottages and fortified fortresses this winter.

Prizes - TBD

I can't wait to see everyone's beautiful coops in the snow!

 

[TOMTE]

Ooohhh, I hope we get lots of snow here soon so I can get some nice pics!

Oooo, I love the colors. The blue sky lighting the tops of the evergreens and tinting the snow bluish too, the patchy clouds... Very cozy pic!

 

[HopKat]

The blue sky gives me hope that the weather will improve. The good thing about the snow on the coop is the added insulation. We have been dipping below zero and the snow has really helped keep the coop cozy at night. Hopefully you will get the snow you are wishing for without the bitter cold

Temps are about to drop a crazy amount. The high yesterday was 40⁰F.

So... The snow is coming! Within the next few days I should be able to get a couple pictures of a really snowy run to enter!
