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!

Thumbing through a baby chickens for sale in Clayton California
catalog is a yearly traditions in many houses. My kids and I eagerly await
the Murray McMurray Hatchery catalog. We love looking at all the cool and
different chicken breeds available. Catalogs are free so head on over to
their site and request one if you are interested.
Typically hatcheries online offer both standard breeds
and bantams. Bantams are fun hardy little chickens, they lay tiny eggs
that kids especially love collecting. Bantams typically weigh less than 2
pounds when full grown. Just like ordering anything online there are pros
and cons to ordering baby chicks online. Pros of buying baby chicks in
Clayton California * Big Selection - If you are wanting a large
variety of different chicken breeds and egg colors, you will find the best
selection at an online hatchery. * Both Bantams and full sized chickens

both male and female then choosing a "straight run" will save you money
and you will get a mixture of male and female chicks. You can also choose
all males or all females too. * Weekly specials. Hatcheries have sales on
chicks, you are likely to get a good deal if you are flexible with the

before their orders sell out.

Clayton, California
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
Clayton California 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
those little "cheeps" or "chirps" in the background you'll know the wait
was worth it! How to Care for your new baby chickens in Clayton,
California Baby chicks are extremely
charming and also
difficult to withstand,
however it's best to prepare for their
arrival prior to you get them. Prepare initially
by compiling not just the
proper products, but
also the correct
expertise to look after
them. Raising baby chicks is relatively
basic, you merely have to offer them with the following: A tidy and warm
environment Lots of food and water Interest and also
love Environment Your habitat can be an easy box, aquarium,
feline carrier, or guinea
pig cage. Line it with old towels as well as
coverings (without any loose
strings!) to start, and also after a
couple of weeks utilize straw over paper.
Keep in mind: Avoid making use of only
paper or other sandal
surface areas-- or your chicks legs can grow
malformed. You likewise need
something to dish out food and
water in, such as a chicken feeder and also water
recipe from the feed store, or a pickle jar
cover for food as well as an animal bird water dispenser from an animal store. Likewise, as the chicks age you can present a perch
into the habitat to obtain them
trained on perching. Warmth To
maintain your chicks heat you have to
provide them with a heat resource.
This could be as simple as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp style light from an equipment store, or an infrared reptile heat
bulb also work extremely well (my
recommendation). Chicks require this
warmth 24/7 up until their downy fluff is
changed with plumes (which could take up to two months). The recently
hatched out need a temperature level
between 90 and also 100 degrees,
as well as every week this can
be lowered by
approximately 5 levels or
so. The heat resource need to be on just one side of the cage
to allow chicks a range of
temperatures. The chicks are your best
thermostat- if they are hiding in the
contrary edge of your heat
light, you need to
reduce the temperature. If
they are smothering each various other under the
warmth (not simply cuddling),
you should include some warmth.
Housekeeping
Sanitation is essential and also it keeps your chicks healthy. Be sure to alter
the bed linen
commonly as well as
consistently provide clean
food as well as water Food and also water.
Chicks grow very fast
which needs a lot of clean
food as well as water. Give
enough at all times as well
as examine
commonly to avoid parched and
hungry chicks. Chick food is various compared
to adult chicken food, and it can be found in both medicated and non-medicated varieties. Feed chick food for the
initial 2 months, then
switch to a raiser food (~ 17 %
protein) for an additional 2 months,
and afterwards to a somewhat
lower healthy protein feed or a level feed
(if you have layers). Dirt Some chicks like to obtain a running start on taking
dust bathrooms, while others won't take
up that activity up until they are
older. If you have the space in your chick
enclosure, present a tray of sand or
dirt for them to wash in.
Attention as well as love There are a couple of benefits to hanging
out with your chicks. First off, they will more than likely bond with you and also
not run away as grownups. Second, if you
examine your chicks daily and
enjoy their habits, you could
capture health problem or various
other troubles previously. Watch out for wheezing, hopping, or
various other undesirable
indicators. Make sure to
also check out
their poop, as diarrhea can result in matted feathers as well
as clogged cloaca.
Finally, it is important to look out
for social concerns, such as the
smallest chick obtaining badgered. Empty nest syndrome So your
chicks are currently completely feathered
as well as its time for them to leave the
security of your residence
as well as relocate outside into a cage. Take a look at our
part on chicken coops to read more
concerning coops and also
appropriate cage habitats.
