Are chickens color blind?

Just wondering if chickens can see color...............or just shades of gray?

Definitely COLOR!

Mine will fight each other like piranha for a tiny speck of red cranberry skin in a bowl of mixed grains and oatmeal.
I rest my case.

Show chickens something red, especially a sore, they will attack it. Chickens nearly killed one of my hens after the rooster rode her raw.

Wear that outfit around you roosters and you'll see how well they see colors.
