Hen coloring page

Domesticated hen kept for eggs/meat. About 20in, reddish-brown feathers. Makes clucking noise, can lay up to 150 eggs/yr.
This coloring page features an endearing and simple image of a hen - a domesticated fowl kept as poultry and a common source of protein and eggs. The hen is a reddish-brown color, measuring approximately 20 inches long in length. It has a scaly, patterned head featuring two crowned eyes, two nostrils, and a beak---which it can use to make a clucking noise. The hen is visualized with its wing wide open, giving the sense it is about to take off in flight. Each hen can produce up to 150 eggs per year. When coloring this image, pick colors that bring out the true beauty of the hen. Use light browns, oranges, and yellows to make its feathers stand out. For its feet and beak, a nice light yellow or orange should do the trick. Accent those colors with whites, blacks, and grays to give the hen more texture and contrast. Don't forget to draw in the eye sockets! Adding a bit of light gray in these areas should do the trick. Lastly, make sure to pick a nice, vibrant color to illustrate the egg that the hen lays. Have some fun with it and enjoy!
