What Chicken Is This?

My friend Sara and I like to give each other little challenges in Painting - a color, style, medium,  a breed or mold, or like in this case, an animal.

This is the Breyer OF hen with chicks.  I was given a blank from the farm set and told any color other than what Breyer has made.


So I look at all the colorful plumage of various chicken breeds.
Delicate barred feathers...

Couldn’t recall what it was - Wikipedia and poultry pages led me to this.




What do you think?  Is it an improvement?

In my college years I was commended for painting detail on a 2D chicken.  This was a fun little project!  Now I want eggs...
