Chicken Breasts

(Monotype on Rives BFK cream)

Modeled after one of my broiler chickens–one of the cockerels, fully grown within a couple of months. These birds are huge. Their breasts are huge. At this angle, the male looked sort of matronly–at least in the breast area. When mature (ready for butchering) they are extremely large birds, and waddle along, breasts low to the ground. They are a very different shape from the other, lighter, egg-laying breeds, the ornamental breeds and even the other breeds of “heavies” that I raise.
