Thanks for the kind comments everyone!

Nope. It's not Photoshopped. They actually dyed the chicks while they were in the egg. It's something that was pretty common around Easter-time when I was a kid, but then it began to be viewed as "cruel". I was very surprised to find out that anyone still did it.

Here's an article about a similar story:
