Chicken Hen Gazing Upward From a Messy Nest

A plump hen sits on a messy straw nest with her head tipped up and a happy look on her face. She has a tall comb on top of her head, a small beak, two wattles hanging under her chin, and round eyes looking upward. Jagged feathers fan out along her neck, chest, and the pointed tail at the back, and a single wing is outlined on her side. Two eggs peek out from the straw at the front, one on each side of her body. The nest is drawn with loose, scribbly lines, so there are plenty of small spaces to fill in. Try browns, golds, and yellows for the straw, then pick a classic red for the comb and wattles. This free printable also works well for a farm unit, where kids can talk about where eggs come from and why hens sit on them.
