A yellow baby chicken (chick), hatching from an egg and seeing the world for the first time. Broadly depicted with an orange beak, facing forward in the cracked bottom half of a white egg, generally shown flapping its wings with a cute facial expression.

Often used with an affectionate tone. May be used to represent various types of babies, avian or human, and, by extension, childbirth more generally. Relatedly, often used to represent new beginnings, spring and Easter. May also be used to represent chicken-related foods (e.g., poultry, eggs) or slang senses of chick.
