Can we enter the contests if we are not participating in the hatch along? I just recently had 10 chicks hatch and I have 22 chickens now and I dont want to hatch more. I would love to participate I cant though. Hopfully sometime I can participate. I am asking '' Can we enter the contests if we are not participating in the hatch along?'' Because tomorrows random # generator sounds soooo fun!
thanks,

Most are open to all of BYC. There are a couple that are only open to hatchers and they say hatchers only in the rules. All the contests and links are listed on the first page of this thread.

Random question for ya'll:

This Easter, I am going to make these:




but to do so... I need one of these:
Also known as a wax pen or "kistka".

I've looked at all the hobby stores in our valley and can't find one! I could get one on the internet, but shipping is so expensive for such a small item! Does anyone either a) have any they could sell, or b) know how to make one?

Maybe PM Pysankygirl? She pops on here from time to time. Bought my Barnie eggs from her.

Well,I just pulled out 2 more Cochins, so 1 left out of 15. I really hope that little bugger makes it. I did an eggtopsy on them, and the one died about 3 days ago, I think. The other was today or yesterday. The difference in development is amazing. The older one was amazingly chick like. Black down was growing, beak, toes, eyelids all there. It honestly looked only slightly smaller than my Seramas at hatch, and complete. So close little buddy. BUT now I know what the others must look like right now, so I'm all the more excited.

You can enter the Chicken Tiara contest without participating in the Hatch-a-long. <*wiggling eyebrows suggestively*>

There are plenty of contests on page 1 of this thread that are open to all of BYC, but I'm pretty sure the random post contest tom. night is only open to the hatchers. Check out page one though, cool prizes too!!

Ok thanks!
