Picture Of The Week (POW) Information & Submissions

[ButtonHoarder]

The cutest beards

 

[All4Eggz]

How's this side view? it's 14 weeks approx. It's a very curious chicken. First to see what snack I might be bringing.

It does look like a likely cockerel.

 

[janiedoe]

Priscilla, 4 to 5 weeks old, black star (?) pullet. Purchased from the bantam assortment bin. Clearly, she was masquerading as a bantam, but she's a keeper. Look at those eyes!

 

[janiedoe]

How precious is this?

Hey everyone, have you entered the calendar contest yet? There are so many amazing pictures here that we thought we should let you know that you *can* enter them in the calendar contest too. Hurry, the calendar contest ends August 31st at 11:59 pm Pacific Time.

2023 BYC Calendar Photo Contest—We Need Your Pictures!
Ends August 31st at 11:59 pm Pacific Time​

Unfortunately, the last 2 weeks have been slammed and nasty from rain, so I didn't make the deadline for pics

That always sucks to wake up to dead chicken(s). Breaks my

RIP.
Found her dead this morning, likely due to suffocation. (the chicks like to cuddle closely together every night)
Will be more cautious now.

The Red Pyle is also dead.

 

[Mother Clucker 69]

Always room for one more!

It still perplexes me why they all have to use one when there are so many more
