Chickens have very well developed color vision. They even have one additional cone type. Where humans have red, green and blue receptors, chickens have an additional violet cone. So, yes, chickens can see "yellow" and will peck at yellow out of curiosity. If that yellow item is tasty (they also have well defined taste buds), then when they see a similar yellow item, they will again peck at it. Therefore, it's a combination of identifying the color "yellow" and the learned behavior of "yellow tastes good".
