if you aren't welcomed home by the discordant screams of a pom-pom headed chicken named Muffin, then what kind of life are you living???

Hose (left. she has a yellow beak and legs), unnamed (right, she has a black beak and blue legs)
and here's my page of trying to understand how they move their wings so I could have all the positions and how to abstract them down. I did all this at the end of January and drew most of the final chickens today, so idk how much this helped, but it did at least help a bit.

the black silkie is also unnamed. They're all halfway between livestock and pets so...

This is a useful little sequence of exercises for learning the shapes of an animal (e.g., a chook) and then loosening your sketches — it’s fun on its own, but I also do this when about to illustrate an animal I don’t draw a lot. 
Take your [chook] and break it into the basic shapes from which it is constructed. Try very simple (e.g. the two-eggs approach at the top of the page) and more nuanced. Try considering just types of line-segments that outline it (straight lines? s-curves?)
Take a few examples of [chooks] and work out what the basic overall shape of each is — in this case, a sort of fox/shield. Is there a shape all the [chooks] you’ve looked at have in common? What are the fewest number of sides that recognisably contain a [chook]? If your subject has lines (e.g. legs) and you extend them, do they always pass through the same place? (And if you can, find a video and sketch them in motion, to see the line they follow when they move.)
Choose any basic shape (e.g. circle, square, triangle) and use it to design a [chook]. Fit a [chook] into it entirely. Then use it as the general base for a [chook].
Draw a sequence of irregular, scribbly shapes. Turn each into a [chook]. Lean into the recognisable bits, the bits where the shape suggests a [chook]. Then lean the other way, and force the shape to be a [chook] against its instincts.
Make some ink/paint/coffee blots. What are the minimum details you can add to turn each into a [chook]?
(There are a few links to related and writing versions of this exercise at Observation journal exercise: simplifying sketches, mixing them up again)

For today's Zooly "Chickens" prompt, I chose to draw a barred Plymouth rock because, well, they're FUN to draw! Can you find all the chicks? The Plymouth rock is one of my favorite breeds that I have in my flock. They're great egg-layers, laying around 200 brown eggs a year, but as a dual-purpose bred I also raise a few each year for meat. 100 years ago this was the most popular breed of chicken in the United States. While the exact origin of this breed is a bit contentious, genetic analysis shows the main ancestor of the Plymouth rock is the similarly barred Dominique. Ink pen with Copic markers.

The chicks are not quite a week old, and they have already figured out the best way to enjoy watermelon rinds.
