13th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along
Hatching Chick Photo Contest

Welcome to the Hatching Chick Photo Contest. The stressful time spent watching your chicks grow in the egg is now over, and hatching can begin. So get your cameras out because this contest is for pictures of chicks, ducks, emus, quail, or any other domestic fowl hatching. At least one of the birds must be still partially in the eggshell (see pics of past winners below for examples).

If you'd like some tips on how to take better photos, take a look at these awesome threads:
It's easy to enter, just post pictures of your hatchlings in this thread and you will be entered for a chance to win!

Rules:

  1. All domestic hatchling fowl allowed (chickens, turkeys, peafowl, guinea fowl, quail, waterfowl, pheasants, emu, etc).
  2. At least one of the hatchlings must be partially in the eggshell.
  3. Four entries per member. An entry is *one* picture of your domestic hatchling fowl.
  4. Must be your picture of your hatchling.
  5. The picture needs to have been taken by you.
  6. You cannot use a photo that won an award in another BYC sponsored contest.
  7. Basic editing such as cropping and other subtle changes are allowed.
  8. Images that have been resized might be disqualified if they are too small to judge.

  11. No screenshots, and no watermarks, date stamps, text, etc. on the picture.
