Rooster Chicken Perched on a Barn Roof

Coloring guide
At the peak of a wooden barn roof stands a big rooster, beak open as if he's crowing across the whole farm. He has a fluffy comb, a wattle, detailed wing feathers and a tall sweeping tail. Beside him a weather vane topped with a small chicken sits above an arrow and decorative spinning arms. The barn has a gambrel roof, a square paned window, and large double doors with crisscross X braces and two round ring handles. Behind it are a leafy tree, rolling hills, wooden fences, a windmill, puffy clouds and birds in the sky, while a wooden barrel, a stacked hay bale, grass tufts and daisy-like flowers fill the foreground. Warm reds and oranges suit the tail, and a classic red barn with soft gray shingles looks great. This free printable has big areas for little hands and fine details for older kids.

- 1Start with the big background areas: color the sky-free areas and the grassy trees and bushes in light green and forest green, leaving the clouds and the sky white.
- 2Fill the barn walls, gable boards and roof side panels with barn red, leaving the roof trim, door frames and beams white.
- 3Color the rooster: use chestnut brown for the body, steel blue for the wing, teal green for the tail and golden orange for the head, with the red comb on top.
- 4Add the hay bales and the hills in straw yellow, and the windows in sky blue, keeping the window frames white.
- 5Optional: Finish with the small details like the gray chimney and weathervane chicken in cool gray, and the warm tan fence posts, then add a little extra shading on the barn walls.
