About this coloring page
This detailed scene features three happy hens in their farmyard coop, complete with a cozy straw nest holding four large eggs. The drawing is composed of clean, bold outlines that make it easy for children aged 4-8 to stay within the lines while exploring different textures like feathers and straw. One hen pecks at a pile of grain while the others look on, set against a background of a wooden fence, wire mesh, and a fluffy tree. This coloring page is an excellent resource for a farm-themed lesson plan or a relaxing afternoon activity at home. Children can use a variety of colors to bring the outdoor scenery and the cheerful poultry to life.
How to color this page
- Use different shades of yellow or brown for the straw nest to give it a realistic, layered look.
- Try a bright red for the chickens' combs and wattles to make them stand out from their feathers.
- Use light blue or gray for the sky behind the clouds to add depth to the farm background.
- Color each individual grain of feed with tiny spots of gold or tan to create a textured appearance.
Who is this page for?
This printable coloring page is made for the Happy Starter age group. Younger children can color the large shapes first and add the small details later — there is no wrong way to color it.
What you need
A printer, a sheet of A4 or US Letter paper and your favourite crayons, coloured pencils or markers. Thicker paper (120 gsm or more) works best with felt tip pens so the colours do not bleed through.
