I started to buy whole chickens to practice cutting them. To my surprise, there were some extra parts. The heart and liver were easy to identify. I had some trouble finding the joints to cut but eventually I had all the different parts.
The second time, I bought chicken from Costco. This time there were more gibblets which I did not know what they were. There is this mushy looking thing where a part looks kind of like intestine. It is a light color than the dark brown/red color of the other gizzard. There was also a part that had a whitish color. This I found later was the gizzard. There's also a dark brownish color with something hard inside which I think is the neck but the color is kind of weird.
The links below helped identify a few things.
