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
Republic Missouri * Big Selection - If you are wanting a large
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
Republic 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 Republic,
Missouri Baby chicks are quite
adorable and also
hard to stand up to,
but it's finest to prepare for their
arrival prior to you obtain them. Prepare initially
by compiling not just the
appropriate materials, but
likewise the proper
knowledge to care for
them. Raising baby chicks is relatively
straightforward, you just have to provide them with the following: A
clean and also cozy
habitat Plenty of food as well
as water Focus as well as
love Environment Your habitat can be a
simple box, fish tank,
feline carrier, or guinea
pig cage. Line it with old towels as well as
blankets (with no loose
strings!) to begin, as well as after a few weeks utilize straw over newspaper.
Keep in mind: Avoid using only
paper or various other sandal
surface areas-- or your chicks legs can expand
malformed. You also need
something to provide food and
water in, such as a chicken feeder as well as water
dish from the feed shop, or a pickle jar
cover for food as well as a pet bird water dispenser from a
pet dog store. Additionally, as the chicks age you could present a perch
right into the environment to get them
educated on setting down. Warmth To
maintain your chicks heat you should
offer them with a warmth resource.
This can be as simple as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp style lamp from an equipment shop, or an infrared reptile heat
bulb likewise work extremely well (my
recommendation). Chicks require this
heat 24/7 up until their downy fluff is
replaced with feathers (which can use
up to two months). The recently
hatched require a temperature level
in between 90 as well as 100 levels,
and every week this can
be minimized by
about 5 degrees approximately. The heat resource ought
to be on merely one side of the cage
to permit chicks a range of
temperatures. The chicks are your ideal
thermometer- if they are hiding in the
contrary corner of your warmth
lamp, you should
lower the temperature level. If
they are surrounding each other under the
warmth (not merely cuddling),
you need to put some warmth.
Housekeeping
Tidiness is crucial and also it keeps your chicks healthy. Be sure to change
the bed linen
commonly as well as
consistently give clean
food and also water Food as well as water.
Chicks grow really quickly
which needs a lot of tidy
food and water. Supply
sufficient at all times as well
as inspect
usually to avoid dehydrated and also
hungry chicks. Chick food is various compared
to adult chicken food, and it can be found in both medicated as well as non-medicated varieties. Feed chick food for the
very first two months, after that
switch to a grower food (~ 17 %
protein) for an additional 2 months,
then to a slightly
reduced healthy protein feed or a level feed
(if you have layers). Soil Some chicks prefer to obtain a head start on taking
dust bathrooms, while others won't use up that activity up until they are
older. If you have the area in your chick
unit, introduce a tray of sand or
dust for them to shower in.
Interest and also love There are a couple of advantages to hanging
out with your chicks. To start
with, they will most
likely bond with you as well as
not escape as grownups. Second, if you
examine your chicks daily as well as
watch their habits, you can
capture health problem or other issues previously. Keep an
eye out for wheezing, limping, or
other unhealthy
indicators. Make certain to
additionally look at
their poop, as diarrhea can bring about matted feathers as well
as stopped up cloaca.
Lastly, it is very
important to keep an eye out for social problems, such as the
tiniest chick obtaining badgered. Empty nest disorder So your
chicks are now completely feathered
as well as its time for them to leave the
safety of your home
as well as relocate outside right into a
coop. Look into our
section on chicken coops to find out
more
concerning cages and
appropriate cage habitats.
