Rooster and the full chicken family

We continue our series of beaded chickens. We have already made a young chicken and a hen. To get the full chicken family, today we will make a rooster. This chicken family can be an original Easter decoration, as well as a wonderful gift.

To make a beaded rooster I used:
- size 8 seed beads of six colors: orange, red, green, yellow, black and gray-pink;
- two 6 mm sequins;
- a wooden egg (you can also use a plastic egg);
- thin nylon fishing line (0,2 mm thick) and a beading needle.

Chicken family

Today we will learn how to make a mother hen for the young chicken that we made earlier.
To make this hen I used:
- Czech seed beads of #8 size of four colors: white, red, black and grey-pink;
- transparent pink sequins of 6 mm in diameter;
- wooden egg (you can also use a plastic egg);
- nylon line of 0.2 mm in diameter and a needle for beading.

Young chicken

To make a beaded young chicken we will need:
- Czech seed beads of three colors: yellow (of #10 size), red (also of #10 size) and black (of #8 size);
- white sequins of 5 mm in diameter;
- nylon thread and a needle for beading;
- rubber ball of 25 mm in diameter.
