zsh not load zshrc?

Question

Whenever I run zsh in OS X it doesn't load my color preferences, I have to manually source my ~/.zshrc to get it to work.

I use oh my zsh, if it matters.

EDIT:

I added a alias

alias ls='ls --color=auto'

and solved problem.

but, the strange is, without the alias the was only way of get the colors with

. ~/.zshrc

Are you opening zsh from within a bash session? If so, I'm not sure that the .zshrc file is read. You can try changing you're default shell to zsh by running which zsh for the path, the chsh to change your shell. You'll need to logout/login to see the changes.

Is your .zshrc the .oh-my-zsh one?
Could it be that your ls alias is being overridden elsewhere?
