Wal~Mart has green chickens in the yard decorations section. They are so ugly !

I know they used to inject food coloring into eggs ( please don't ask me what stage) and the chicks would hatch that color untill they grew feathers in??? so ya.. you can have a purple chick.. good luck on the purple chicken though
