How to Draw a Chicken Face
Draw a chicken face in 10 easy steps, about 8 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the head.
Step 1: The head
Draw a big egg, a little wider near the bottom, so big it fills most of the page.
Step 2: Pointed beak
Low on the face, draw a small rounded triangle beak, point down. Draw one short line across it.
Step 3: Two big eyes
Halfway down the head, above the beak, draw 2 big round eyes with a gap between them.
Step 4: Pupils and shine
Inside each eye, colour a big black dot, leaving a small white shine near the top.
Tip Leave the rest of each eye white.
Step 5: Red comb
Start on top of the head, left of the middle. Draw 3 bumps like a crown, ending on the head.
Tip Make the middle bump the tallest, with no lines inside the comb.
Step 6: The wattle
Under the beak, draw a little teardrop wattle. Start on the beak, drop to a round end, come back up.
Step 7: Eyebrows
Just above each eye, draw a short, gentle curved eyebrow. Start over the inside and stop over the outside.
Step 8: Rosy cheeks
Draw a small round blush on each cheek, beside the beak and under the eye, and colour it pink.
Step 9: White hen, yellow beak
Leave the head white, like paper, then colour the beak yellow. Keep the eyes white.
Step 10: Red comb and wattle
Colour the comb and the wattle red, and go over all your lines.
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a chicken face, drawn by you.
