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
Punta Gorda Florida is easy and has always been a very pleasant
experience of me. It can be a little frustrating waiting for the chicks

was worth it! How to Care for your new baby chickens in Punta Gorda,
Florida Baby chicks are very
adorable and
difficult to stand up to,
but it's best to prepare for their
arrival prior to you get them. Prepare initially
by compiling not only the
right products, however
also the correct
expertise to take care of
them. Raising baby chicks is reasonably
basic, you merely need
to give them with the following: A tidy and cozy
environment A lot of food and also water Interest and
love Environment Your habitat could be an easy box, aquarium,
feline provider, or guinea
pig cage. Line it with old towels and
blankets (with no loose
strings!) to start, and after a few weeks use straw over newspaper.
Note: Avoid using only
paper or various other slipper
surface areas-- or your chicks legs could expand
misshapen. You additionally need
something to provide food and
water in, such as a chicken feeder and also water
meal from the feed store, or a pickle jar
cover for food and a pet dog bird water dispenser from a pet store. Also, as the chicks age you could present a perch
into the habitat to get them
educated on perching. Heat To
maintain your chicks warm you should
provide them with a warmth source.
This can be as straightforward as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp design lamp from a
hardware shop, or an infrared reptile heat
light bulb likewise work extremely well (my
suggestion). Chicks require this
heat 24/7 until their downy fluff is
changed with feathers (which could use
up to 2 months). The freshly
hatched out need a temperature
between 90 as well as 100 levels,
and each week this can
be reduced by
approximately 5 levels or
so. The heat source need to be on merely one side of the cage
to permit chicks an array of
temperatures. The chicks are your ideal
thermostat- if they are concealing in the
other edge of your warmth
lamp, you should
minimize the temperature. If
they are surrounding each various other under the
warmth (not simply curling up),
you have to put some warmth.
House cleaning
Tidiness is essential and it keeps your chicks healthy. Make certain to alter
the bed linen
often as well as
consistently give clean
food as well as water Food and water.
Chicks expand very fast
which calls for lots of clean
food and water. Offer
enough at all times and examine
commonly to prevent parched as well as
hungry chicks. Chick food is various compared
to grown-up chicken food, and it comes
in both medicated as well as non-medicated varieties. Feed chick food for the
very first 2 months, after that
switch to a grower food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for another 2 months,
and then to a somewhat
lower protein feed or a layer feed
(if you have levels). Dirt Some chicks prefer to get a running start on taking
dirt bathrooms, while others will not occupy that task until they are
older. If you have the room in your chick
enclosure, introduce a tray of sand or
filth for them to wash in.
Interest and love There are a couple of benefits to spending time with your chicks. First off, they will more than likely bond with you as well as
not flee as grownups. Second, if you
analyze your chicks daily and also
view their habits, you can
capture disease or various
other troubles previously. Keep an
eye out for wheezing, hopping, or
other undesirable
signs. Make certain to
additionally take a look at
their poop, as looseness of the bowels could result in matted plumes and also stopped up cloaca.
Last but not least, it is important to keep an eye out for social issues, such as the
littlest chick getting picked
on. Empty nest disorder So your
chicks are currently fully feathered
and its time for them to leave the
safety and security of your home
as well as move outside right into a
coop. Look into our
part on chicken cages to learn more
concerning coops as well as
proper coop environments.
