GreenGables I am not sure if it how the image comes through to my computer or not but am I seeing a 'wing' pattern in your stitches? Looks like an interesting angles to the stitches shaping the body.
Peepacheep, the pattern begins making the tail of the chicken horizontally. You then connect a new row veritically to make the body. It's not your computer you actually have a keen eye for detail. The pattern is called "Henrietta and her chicks".
