This is a lady chicken. You can tell because of the eye mostly, though the gently curves help define its femininity of course. I picked pretty colors and used faded red(okay, pink) for the waddle and comb since it's been a while since I made a chicken that didn't seem masculine. She doesn't really seem all that intense I suppose.
Love your chickens!
ReplyDeleteAnd ... um ... it's "wattle." Waddle is what penguins do to get to that tasty fish on the other side of the ice floe.
Shelley, servant to 8 rescue chickens. Who like fish, too.
Is it just me, or is her brown plumage a more luminous shade of brown than what you usually use?
ReplyDeleteIt is indeed a more luminous shade.
ReplyDeleteAnd um... woops. Thanks for correcting my word-use. I've been misusing that one since I started so... I'll have to make something actually waddling now and say he's wattling to make up for it
Ooh! A wattling penguin! Must see!
ReplyDeleteOh my god. You can totally tell that's a she-chicken.
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful chicken. And please say why we need to vote for numbers?
ReplyDeletePS: If it's for the number of chickens you post in a day, I voted 16. :)
