What Color Are Baby Chicks? A Quick Coloring Guide
Most people picture a bright yellow chick, and many breeds really do hatch yellow. But baby chicks also come in cream, light brown, black and even chipmunk-style stripes, depending on the breed. Barred Rock chicks, for example, are black with a small white spot on the head.
For little ones, keep it simple: yellow or orange for the body, orange for the beak and feet, and any colors they like for the scene. Older kids can use two shades of yellow, a light one for the body and a darker one under the wing, to make the chick look soft and fluffy.
5 Easy Activities with Your Chick Coloring Sheets
- Spring or birthday cards. Color a chick, fold cardstock in half and glue the picture on the front.
- Story time. Lay out three scene pages and let your child tell a story about the chick’s day.
- Seasons sort. Color the spring, rainy, summer and winter chicks, then ask your child to put them in order through the year.
- Classroom display. Each child colors a different chick for a “Spring on the Farm” wall.
- Fluffy chick. Glue cotton balls or yellow tissue paper onto the colored chick for a soft, touchable picture.
