Assuming your backup includes your home directory your fish color
preferences will be backed up.

As I said in my earlier reply they are stored in your $HOME/.config/fish
directory. In the fish 2.7 release the file name is `fishd.` plus your
system host name or primary mac address. But you don't need to know that.
Do not edit that file by hand. Always use the fish `set -U` command to
modify it. In fish 3.x the file no longer has a unique machine specific
suffix. Which is nice because it means that if you copy your home directory
to a different system you will automatically get your fish color
preferences on that machine.
