Crochet Chicken Hat

I'm working on a chicken hat. If you look at the photo you can see my idea sketch in the background. It's crocheted in Red Heart acrylic yarn. If this turns out I'll try other color schemes. What is your favorite color of chicken? I seem to be on a barnyard theme what with the bacon, eggs, and chickens. And I should really make some more amigurumi pigs too. I'd like to try a paler pink than the last one, and maybe a smaller hook.
