I cheerlead for my first chick, they seem to respond and work harder at getting out of the egg.

I'm curious on chick color terminology like I want to be able to figure out what the correct color terminology is for my chicks I hatch.
I know there's like chipmunk and yellow
Sorry for all the questions, there's so much to learn.

I found this thread: https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/chick-down-colour.1151595/

There are several links and suggestions for books to read if you're interested in breeding for certain colors as well.

When I found out that most Google searches relating to chickens led me back to BYC I decided to join, lol.
