Spring time is coming! It is the time for baby chicks, bunnies and flowers. I have some of all of those things on the blog. Many in dessert form ;). Including these baby chicks in a nest donuts. I really love this time of year and I am having a blast getting ready for Easter. Luckily these little donuts are so easy to whip up for Easter or spring parties. Tweet, tweet the baby chicks are ready to party. I almost feel bad eating these little cuties because they are so adorable. Almost but they are also tasty!
what you need to make them:
mini chocolate donuts(store bought or home made)
yellow M&Ms(I used the light yellow Easter ones)
orange or pink heart sprinkles
black food writing pen
frosting or melted chocolate
Add a little bit of frosting or melted chocolate to the top of the donuts. I had frosting on hand so I used that but melted chocolate might be easier. Take a yellow M&M, put a dab of frosting or chocolate towards the bottom middle.
Take a black food writer and draw two half circles facing down for the eyes. You could also just put two dots for the eyes. Then put the M&Ms on the donuts.
Aren’t they just the cutest?! I just know everyone, especially the kids, will love these cuties for Easter!

Quantity - you must order a certain number of chicks. Typically hatcheries
will require you buy a minimum of 25 chicks at a time. The number is
necessary for the chicks survival during shipping. All 25 chicks are put
in one small box without heat. They are crowded in the box and produce
enough body heat to arrive in good shape. * The wait - If you choose to
buy chicks from a feed store you will have them the same day but if you
choose to go with a hatchery you have to wait until they are ready to ship
and then wait for the chicks to arrive. Ordering baby chicks online in
Cook Springs Alabama is easy and has always been a very pleasant
experience of me. It can be a little frustrating waiting for the chicks
but it's so worth the wait. When the post office calls and you hear all

was worth it! How to Care for your new baby chickens in Cook Springs,
Alabama Baby chicks are really
cute and
hard to stand up to,
yet it's ideal to prepare for their
arrival prior to you get them. Prepare first
by compiling not just the
proper products, however
additionally the appropriate
understanding to look after
them. Raising baby chicks is relatively
simple, you simply should provide them with the following: A tidy and warm
habitat A lot of food and also water Focus and also
love Habitat Your environment can be a straightforward box, fish tank,
feline service provider, or guinea
pig cage. Line it with old towels as well as
coverings (without any loosened
strings!) to start, as well as after a few weeks use straw over newspaper.
Note: Avoid utilizing just
paper or other slipper
surfaces-- or your chicks legs can grow
misshapen. You additionally need
something to dish out food and also
water in, such as a chicken feeder and water
dish from the feed store, or a pickle jar
lid for food and a pet bird water dispenser from a pet store. Likewise, as the chicks grow older you can introduce a perch
right into the habitat to obtain them
trained on setting down. Warmth To
keep your chicks warm you should
supply them with a warmth resource.
This could be as basic as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp design light from an equipment store, or an infrared reptile warmth
bulb additionally function extremely well (my
referral). Chicks need this
warmth 24/7 up until their downy fluff is
changed with plumes (which can occupy to 2 months). The newly
hatched require a temperature level
between 90 and also 100 levels,
and weekly this could
be reduced by
roughly 5 levels approximately. The warmth source need to get on just one side of the cage
to enable chicks a range of
temperature levels. The chicks are your best
thermometer- if they are concealing in the
opposite edge of your warmth
light, you need to
minimize the temperature level. If
they are surrounding each other under the
heat (not simply curling up),
you should add some warmth.
House cleaning
Cleanliness is vital as
well as it maintains your chicks healthy. Make certain to change
the bed linen
typically and
constantly provide clean
food as well as water Food as well as water.
Chicks grow very quickly
which requires plenty of clean
food as well as water. Give
sufficient in any way times and inspect
typically to avoid dehydrated as well as
starving chicks. Chick food is different than grown-up chicken food, and it comes
in both medicated and non-medicated ranges. Feed chick food for the
very first 2 months, then
change to a grower food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for one more 2 months,
and after that to a somewhat
reduced healthy protein feed or a level feed
(if you have levels). Soil Some chicks want
to obtain a running start on taking
filth bathrooms, while others will not use up that activity until they are
older. If you have the space in your chick
room, present a tray of sand or
dust for them to shower in.
Attention as well as love There are a couple of benefits to spending time with your chicks. To start
with, they will probably bond with you and
not flee as adults. Second, if you
examine your chicks daily and
view their behavior, you can
catch disease or other problems previously. Keep an
eye out for wheezing, hopping, or
various other undesirable
signs. Make certain to
also check out
their poop, as diarrhea can result in matted feathers as well
as clogged cloaca.
Lastly, it is essential to watch out for social issues, such as the
tiniest chick getting picked
on. Empty nest disorder So your
chicks are now totally feathery
and its time for them to leave the
safety of your residence
as well as move outside into a cage. Take a look at our
area on chicken cages to get more information
about coops and
correct cage habitats.
