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
Emmett Idaho * 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

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
Emmett Idaho 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 Emmett,
Idaho Baby chicks are really
cute and
tough to resist,
but it's finest to plan for their
arrival prior to you obtain them. Prepare initially
by compiling not just the
right materials, yet
also the correct
understanding to care for
them. Raising baby chicks is relatively
straightforward, you just have to provide them with the following: A tidy and also cozy
habitat A lot of food and also water Focus and
love Habitat Your habitat can be a straightforward box, fish tank,
pet cat carrier, or guinea
porker cage. Line it with old towels and also
blankets (without any loosened
strings!) to start, and after a few weeks use straw over newspaper.
Note: Avoid utilizing only
newspaper or other slipper
surfaces-- or your chicks legs can grow
malformed. You likewise require
something to provide food and also
water in, such as a chicken feeder and also water
recipe from the feed shop, or a pickle jar
lid for food as well as a pet dog bird water dispenser from a pet store. Additionally, as the chicks get
older you can present a perch
into the environment to obtain them
educated on setting down. Warmth To
maintain your chicks warm you have to
give them with a warmth source.
This could be as easy as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp design light from a
hardware store, or an infrared reptile heat
bulb likewise function effectively (my
suggestion). Chicks need this
heat 24/7 until their downy fluff is
changed with feathers (which could take up to two months). The freshly
hatched need a temperature level
in between 90 as well as 100 degrees,
as well as every week this could
be decreased by
roughly 5 levels or
so. The heat source ought
to get on just one side of the cage
to enable chicks a variety of
temperature levels. The chicks are your ideal
thermostat- if they are hiding in the
other corner of your warmth
lamp, you should
reduce the temperature level. If
they are surrounding each various other under the
heat (not just cuddling),
you have to include some warmth.
Home cleaning
Sanitation is crucial and also it keeps your chicks healthy. Make certain to alter
the bed linens
typically as well as
always offer tidy
food as well as water Food as well as water.
Chicks expand really quickly
which requires a lot of clean
food and also water. Offer
enough in any way times as well
as examine
typically to
stop parched and also
starving chicks. Chick food is different than grown-up chicken food, and also it is available in both medicated and non-medicated ranges. Feed chick food for the
very first two months, then
switch to a raiser food (~ 17 %
protein) for an additional 2 months,
and afterwards to a somewhat
lower protein feed or a level feed
(if you have levels). Soil Some chicks want
to get a head start on taking
dust baths, while others won't take
up that activity till they are
older. If you have the room in your chick
enclosure, introduce a tray of sand or
dust for them to bathe in.
Interest and love There are a couple of advantages to hanging
out with your chicks. Firstly, they will more than likely bond with you as well as
not escape as adults. Second, if you
analyze your chicks daily and also
enjoy their actions, you can
catch ailment or various
other issues earlier. Keep an
eye out for hissing, limping, or
other unhealthy
indications. Make certain to
also consider
their poop, as looseness of the bowels can cause matted feathers as well
as blocked cloaca.
Last but not least, it is important to look out
for social problems, such as the
littlest chick getting badgered. Vacant nest syndrome So your
chicks are currently fully feathered
and its time for them to leave the
safety and security of your home
and also move outside right into a
coop. Look into our
part on chicken cages to get more information
about coops as well as
appropriate coop environments.
