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

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

variety of different chicken breeds and egg colors, you will find the best

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
Hanover Minnesota 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 Hanover,
Minnesota Baby chicks are extremely
charming and also
challenging to stand up to,
yet it's ideal to prepare for their
arrival prior to you obtain them. Prepare initially
by collecting not only the
appropriate products, but
additionally the proper
expertise to take care of
them. Raising baby chicks is reasonably
straightforward, you simply should offer them with the following: A
clean and warm
habitat Lots of food and also water Attention as well as
love Habitat Your habitat can be an easy box, fish tank,
cat carrier, or guinea
porker cage. Line it with old towels as well as
coverings (without loosened
strings!) to start, and also after a few weeks make use of straw over newspaper.
Note: Avoid making use of only
newspaper or other sandal
surface areas-- or your chicks legs could expand
malformed. You likewise need
something to dish out food and
water in, such as a chicken feeder as well as water
recipe from the feed shop, or a pickle container
cover for food as well as a pet dog bird water dispenser from an animal shop. Additionally, as the chicks get
older you could present a perch
into the habitat to obtain them
trained on setting down. Heat To
maintain your chicks warm you need to
supply them with a warmth resource.
This could be as simple as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp style light from an equipment shop, or an infrared reptile heat
light bulb additionally work very
well (my
suggestion). Chicks need this
warmth 24/7 up until their downy fluff is
replaced with plumes (which can use
up to 2 months). The newly
hatched out need a temperature
in between 90 as well as 100 degrees,
as well as each week this can
be reduced by
around 5 degrees approximately. The heat resource need to be on just one side of the cage
to allow chicks a range of
temperatures. The chicks are your best
thermometer- if they are concealing in the
contrary edge of your warmth
lamp, you should
minimize the temperature. If
they are surrounding each various other under the
heat (not merely snuggling),
you need to put some heat.
House cleaning
Cleanliness is key and it maintains your chicks healthy. Make sure to transform
the bed linen
often and
constantly offer tidy
food and water Food and also water.
Chicks expand really quick
which needs plenty of clean
food and water. Supply
sufficient whatsoever times and also inspect
usually to prevent dehydrated as well as
hungry chicks. Chick food is various than adult chicken food, and also it is available in both medicated and
also non-medicated selections. Feed chick food for the
very first 2 months, after that
switch over to a raiser food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for an additional 2 months,
and then to a somewhat
reduced healthy protein feed or a layer feed
(if you have levels). Dirt Some chicks like to get a running start on taking
dirt bathrooms, while others will not take
up that activity until they are
older. If you have the room in your chick
enclosure, present a tray of sand or
dust for them to shower in.
Attention and also love There are a couple of advantages to spending quality time with your chicks. Firstly, they will certainly probably bond with you and also
not run away as adults. Second, if you
examine your chicks daily as well as
view their actions, you can
catch ailment or other issues earlier. Keep an
eye out for hissing, limping, or
other harmful
signs. Be sure to
also consider
their poop, as looseness of the bowels could bring about matted feathers and also obstructed cloaca.
Lastly, it is important to look out
for social concerns, such as the
littlest chick obtaining badgered. Empty nest disorder So your
chicks are currently completely feathery
as well as its time for them to leave the
safety and security of your house
and also relocate outside right into a cage. Check out our
section on chicken coops to find out
more
concerning coops and
correct cage habitats.
