IF - Hatch
Initially, I wanted to illustrate the hen reading a card, congratulating her on laying the eggs. Sort of like a Congratulations card for Twins, Quadruplets etc.
Thanks to a quick search, I realised a hen can only lay one egg at a time! Double eggs rarely if ever happen. Double yolks do, but two eggs from a single hen would be something . It takes about 24 hours for a hen to produce a single egg.
In that case, that "would be something" will make mama proud!

Great idea and line work!
Well, biology aside, it's a fab pic!!
(And I'm a mum of twins so I think it's a doubly fab pic!!)
Wow, you really do your research...makes me feel like a hack considering I doodle without putting any thought into it!
I love this piece, it's fantastic. The inking is superb, and I love how you've used pen and brush together.
Nicely done!
