Today’s sketch of the day in my moleskine art journal is of a Turkish ornamental sultan rooster from the same farm as George the goose in Beysehir, Konya in Turkey.
Prized for its decorative plumage and puffy crests and long tails. They were kept by the Ottoman Sultans in the imperial gardens hence it’s name. It is the weirdest and most unusual looking chicken I have ever met.
I need to add the words ‘I AM NOT A FEATHER DUSTER’ so that there is no mistake.

I’m a bit confused now about this fella. He doesn’t have hairy legs like a sultan but he does have 5 toes. You must have thought they were so cute as a child. I love this chicken. Never seen one quite like him before!

Oh, if only I could recreate that haircut I could revisit the late 70’s and the 80’s where I missed out so badly with the need for a less stylish affair- the short back and sides.Maybe I could become a new fashion icon now in my 60’s.
