Red Rooster, Hen and Chicks Birthday Card

Red Rooster, Hen and Chicks on the Farm A family of nine chickens, the Red Rooster looking after a mother hen and her seven newly hatched children. The Rooster with its bright red comb and red orange and black feathers stands, its beak open, as the mother hen looks down on the seven hatchlings whose plumage has not yet fully developed. These domestic fowl are in or beside a farm stable with straw on the ground and a wooden bucket upon which a baby chick balances. From a vintage engraving by unknown artist in an undated publication; research suggests it dates from the period 1860 - 1865 Easy to customise and personalise
