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
Bowling Green Indiana 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 Bowling Green,
Indiana Baby chicks are extremely
charming and
hard to resist,
yet it's finest to plan for their
arrival before you obtain them. Prepare initially
by compiling not just the
right materials, but
additionally the appropriate
understanding to take care of
them. Raising baby chicks is relatively
simple, you merely need
to provide them with the following: A tidy and also warm and comfortable
habitat Plenty of food and water Attention as well as
love Environment Your environment could be an easy box, fish tank,
cat carrier, or guinea
pig cage. Line it with old towels and also
blankets (without loosened
strings!) to start, and also after a few weeks utilize straw over paper.
Keep in mind: Avoid making use of just
newspaper or other slipper
surface areas-- or your chicks legs can expand
misshapen. You additionally require
something to provide food and
water in, such as a chicken feeder and water
recipe from the feed shop, or a pickle jar
cover for food and also an animal bird water dispenser from a family pet store. Also, as the chicks get
older you can introduce a perch
into the environment to get them
trained on setting down. Heat To
maintain your chicks heat you need to
provide them with a warmth resource.
This can be as easy as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp design light from an equipment store, or an infrared reptile warmth
bulb likewise function extremely well (my
referral). Chicks need this
heat 24/7 until their downy fluff is
replaced with feathers (which can take up to two months). The newly
hatched out need a temperature
between 90 as well as 100 degrees,
and also weekly this can
be minimized by
about 5 levels or
so. The warmth source need to get on just one side of the cage
to allow chicks a variety of
temperatures. The chicks are your finest
thermometer- if they are hiding in the
contrary edge of your heat
light, you have to
reduce the temperature level. If
they are surrounding each other under the
warmth (not merely curling up),
you have to include some heat.
Home cleaning
Cleanliness is crucial and it keeps your chicks healthy. Be sure to alter
the bedding
often as well as
consistently provide clean
food and also water Food and also water.
Chicks expand extremely quickly
which needs lots of clean
food and water. Give
enough at all times and check
frequently to prevent thirsty and also
starving chicks. Chick food is different compared
to adult chicken food, and also it comes
in both medicated and non-medicated selections. Feed chick food for the
initial two months, then
change to a raiser food (~ 17 %
protein) for an additional 2 months,
then to a slightly
lower healthy protein feed or a layer feed
(if you have layers). Soil Some chicks like to obtain a running start on taking
filth bathrooms, while others will not occupy that task up until they are
older. If you have the area in your chick
enclosure, present a tray of sand or
dust for them to wash in.
Interest and also love There are a
few benefits to hanging
out with your chicks. Firstly, they will probably bond with you as well as
not run away as grownups. Second, if you
analyze your chicks daily as well as
see their habits, you could
catch ailment or other troubles earlier. Keep an
eye out for wheezing, limping, or
other undesirable
signs. Make sure to
likewise check out
their poop, as diarrhea could bring about matted plumes as well
as clogged cloaca.
Lastly, it is essential to keep an eye out for social problems, such as the
littlest chick obtaining badgered. Empty nest disorder So your
chicks are now totally feathered
and its time for them to leave the
security of your house
and relocate outside right into a
coop. Check out our
section on chicken cages for more information
concerning cages as well as
appropriate cage habitats.
