Abstract The purpose of our project is to determine if chicken prefer different colours of chicken feed. If chickens can choose between red, blue or green dyed feed and non-dyed feed, will they choose one colour over another? If there is a preference of food colour by chickens then the knowledge gained could be used by farmers to encourage their flock to eat.
