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!

Thumbing through a baby chickens for sale in Humansville Missouri
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
Humansville Missouri * 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

both male and female then choosing a "straight run" will save you money
and you will get a mixture of male and female chicks. You can also choose
all males or all females too. * Weekly specials. Hatcheries have sales on

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
Humansville Missouri 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 Humansville,
Missouri Baby chicks are quite
cute and also
challenging to stand up to,
but it's ideal to prepare for their
arrival before you get them. Prepare first
by collecting not only the
right products, but
additionally the appropriate
expertise to look after
them. Raising baby chicks is reasonably
simple, you just have to provide them with the following: A tidy and warm
environment A lot of food as well
as water Attention as well as
love Habitat Your environment could be an easy box, fish tank,
feline service provider, or guinea
porker cage. Line it with old towels and also
blankets (without loose
strings!) to begin, and also after a few weeks make use of straw over paper.
Keep in mind: Avoid utilizing only
newspaper or various other slipper
surface areas-- or your chicks legs could expand
misshapen. You also require
something to serve up food and also
water in, such as a chicken feeder and water
dish from the feed shop, or a pickle container
lid for food and an animal bird water dispenser from a pet shop. Also, as the chicks grow older you can introduce a perch
right into the environment to obtain them
trained on setting down. Warmth To
maintain your chicks warm you have to
supply them with a warmth resource.
This could be as straightforward as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp style lamp from an equipment shop, or an infrared reptile heat
light bulb also function very
well (my
referral). Chicks need this
warmth 24/7 up until their downy fluff is
replaced with feathers (which could use
up to two months). The newly
hatched out need a temperature
in between 90 and 100 degrees,
and also weekly this can
be minimized by
about 5 levels or
so. The warmth source should get on merely one side of the cage
to permit chicks an array of
temperatures. The chicks are your finest
thermometer- if they are concealing in the
other edge of your heat
light, you have to
reduce the temperature level. If
they are smothering each other under the
warmth (not just curling up),
you should add some heat.
Home cleaning
Cleanliness is essential and it maintains your chicks healthy and
balanced. Make sure to alter
the bed linens
often and also
consistently offer tidy
food and also water Food and also water.
Chicks expand quite quick
which calls for a lot of tidy
food and also water. Give
enough in any way times and examine
typically to prevent dehydrated as well as
starving chicks. Chick food is different than adult chicken food, and it comes
in both medicated and non-medicated selections. Feed chick food for the
first 2 months, then
switch to a grower food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for one more 2 months,
and then to a somewhat
lower healthy protein feed or a level feed
(if you have levels). Soil Some chicks like to obtain a running start on taking
dust bathrooms, while others will not use up that task till they are
older. If you have the room in your chick
enclosure, introduce a tray of sand or
filth for them to bathe in.
Focus as well as love There are a
few advantages to spending quality time with your chicks. First of all, they will certainly most
likely bond with you as well as
not escape as adults. Second, if you
analyze your chicks daily and
view their actions, you can
catch illness or various
other problems previously. Keep an
eye out for hissing, hopping, or
other harmful
indicators. Make sure to
also look at
their poop, as diarrhea could cause matted plumes and also blocked cloaca.
Finally, it is essential to keep an eye out for social issues, such as the
littlest chick getting badgered. Empty nest syndrome So your
chicks are currently fully feathered
as well as its time for them to leave the
safety and security of your residence
and relocate outside right into a cage. Take a look at our
part on chicken cages for more information
concerning cages and
correct cage environments.
