Default C'mon chicken legs

what would you do 35

Found a picture of a chicken leg- copied and pasted as a new layer.
Copied and pasted leg as a new layer - mirrored it and placed legs off to the side
selection tool and traced around bottom area of bird and copied, pasted as a new layer and placed new selection off to the side and brought that layer to the top of layer pallette.
Placed legs where i thought they would look ok and then placed the layer with the bird on top and sized it to where i thought i thought it looked ok and in poportion to the chicken legs
I then found a worm and copied and pasted as a new layer several times. I mirrored some and placed them around the bird and sized them differenlty. Selected each one and created a drop shadow for each one to make it look somewhat 3-d. Used the selection tool and traced around the bird and then also selected drop shadow for the bird. Merged all layers.
Used the cloning tool to bring some of the rocks around the base of each worm to try and make it look like it's coming out of the ground. I was going to use the change to target tool and change colors of each worm but only got around to doing one.
