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!

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
Phelan 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

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

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
Phelan 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 Phelan,
California Baby chicks are very
cute as well as
challenging to withstand,
yet it's finest to plan for their
arrival prior to you get them. Prepare initially
by gathering not just the
proper products, yet
likewise the proper
expertise to care for
them. Raising baby chicks is relatively
straightforward, you just should supply them with the following: A tidy and also warm and comfortable
environment Lots of food and water Focus and also
love Environment Your environment could be an easy box, fish tank,
pet cat provider, or guinea
porker cage. Line it with old towels as well as
coverings (with no loosened
strings!) to begin, and after a
couple of weeks make use of straw over paper.
Note: Avoid utilizing just
paper or other slipper
surface areas-- or your chicks legs can expand
misshapen. You also need
something to serve up food as well as
water in, such as a chicken feeder as well as water
dish from the feed shop, or a pickle jar
cover for food and also a pet bird water dispenser from a pet shop. Also, as the chicks age you could present a perch
into the environment to get them
educated on perching. Heat To
keep your chicks heat you have to
give them with a heat resource.
This could be as simple as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp design light from a
hardware store, or an infrared reptile heat
light bulb likewise work effectively (my
recommendation). Chicks need this
warmth 24/7 until their downy fluff is
replaced with feathers (which can use
up to 2 months). The freshly
hatched out need a temperature
between 90 and also 100 degrees,
as well as each week this could
be minimized by
around 5 levels or
so. The warmth resource need to be on merely one side of the cage
to permit chicks a variety of
temperatures. The chicks are your best
thermostat- if they are concealing in the
opposite corner of your warmth
lamp, you should
decrease the temperature level. If
they are smothering each various other under the
warmth (not just snuggling),
you need to add some heat.
Home cleaning
Cleanliness is vital and it maintains your chicks healthy and
balanced. Make certain to change
the bedding
commonly and also
constantly give tidy
food and also water Food and water.
Chicks expand very fast
which needs lots of tidy
food and water. Give
enough whatsoever times and also check
often to prevent parched and also
hungry chicks. Chick food is various than adult chicken food, as well as it is available in both medicated as well as non-medicated selections. Feed chick food for the
initial 2 months, then
switch to a grower food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for one more 2 months,
then to a somewhat
lower protein feed or a layer feed
(if you have layers). Dirt Some chicks prefer to obtain a running start on taking
filth baths, while others will not occupy that task up until they are
older. If you have the room in your chick
room, present a tray of sand or
dust for them to bathe in.
Focus and love There are a couple of advantages to spending quality time with your chicks. Firstly, they will more than likely bond with you and also
not run away as adults. Second, if you
examine your chicks daily as well as
enjoy their actions, you can
capture health problem or other troubles earlier. Watch out for hissing, limping, or
various other harmful
indicators. Be sure to
additionally check out
their poop, as looseness of the bowels can cause matted feathers and blocked cloaca.
Lastly, it is necessary to look out
for social problems, such as the
tiniest chick obtaining badgered. Vacant nest disorder So your
chicks are currently totally feathered
as well as its time for them to leave the
security of your home
as well as move outside right into a cage. Have a look at our
part on chicken cages to get more information
regarding coops and also
proper coop environments.
