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
North Branch Michigan * 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
North Branch Michigan 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 North Branch,
Michigan Baby chicks are very
cute and
difficult to stand up to,
yet it's finest to plan for their
arrival prior to you get them. Prepare initially
by compiling not only the
appropriate products, but
also the appropriate
understanding to care for
them. Raising baby chicks is fairly
simple, you simply have to provide them with the following: A tidy and also warm
habitat Lots of food as well
as water Interest and also
love Environment Your habitat could be a straightforward box, fish tank,
cat provider, or guinea
porker cage. Line it with old towels as well as
coverings (with no loose
strings!) to begin, as well as after a
couple of weeks utilize straw over paper.
Note: Avoid using just
paper or other slipper
surfaces-- or your chicks legs can expand
misshapen. You also require
something to dish out food and also
water in, such as a chicken feeder as well as water
recipe from the feed store, or a pickle container
lid for food as well as an animal bird water dispenser from an animal shop. Also, as the chicks grow older you could present a perch
right into the habitat to get them
trained on perching. Warmth To
keep your chicks warm you should
give them with a warmth source.
This can be as basic as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp style light from an equipment shop, or an infrared reptile warmth
light bulb also work very
well (my
referral). Chicks require this
heat 24/7 up until their downy fluff is
replaced with plumes (which could occupy to 2 months). The freshly
hatched out require a temperature
in between 90 and also 100 levels,
and weekly this could
be reduced by
about 5 levels or
so. The warmth source should be on simply one side of the cage
to permit chicks a range of
temperatures. The chicks are your ideal
thermostat- if they are hiding in the
other corner of your warmth
lamp, you have to
decrease the temperature level. If
they are smothering each various other under the
warmth (not simply curling up),
you have to include some warmth.
Home cleaning
Cleanliness is key as
well as it keeps your chicks healthy. Make sure to change
the bedding
frequently and
consistently provide tidy
food and water Food as well as water.
Chicks grow quite quickly
which calls for a lot of tidy
food and water. Offer
enough whatsoever times as well
as examine
usually to avoid thirsty and
hungry chicks. Chick food is various than grown-up chicken food, as well as it comes
in both medicated and non-medicated ranges. Feed chick food for the
first 2 months, after that
switch over to a raiser food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for another 2 months,
and after that to a slightly
reduced healthy protein feed or a level feed
(if you have layers). Dirt Some chicks like to obtain a running start on taking
dirt baths, while others will not take
up that task till they are
older. If you have the area in your chick
enclosure, introduce a tray of sand or
dust for them to bathe in.
Focus and love There are a
few advantages to hanging
out with your chicks. To start
with, they will certainly probably bond with you and also
not flee as grownups. Second, if you
analyze your chicks daily and
see their behavior, you can
catch disease or various
other troubles previously. Watch out for hissing, limping, or
various other harmful
indicators. Make certain to
additionally check out
their poop, as diarrhea could lead
to matted plumes and also clogged up cloaca.
Lastly, it is essential to keep an eye out for social issues, such as the
tiniest chick obtaining badgered. Vacant nest syndrome So your
chicks are currently totally feathery
as well as its time for them to leave the
security of your house
and relocate outside into a cage. Check out our
area on chicken coops to learn more
concerning cages as well as
appropriate cage environments.
