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
Hensonville New York 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 Hensonville,
New York Baby chicks are very
cute and
difficult to withstand,
yet it's best to prepare for their
arrival before you get them. Prepare first
by compiling not only the
proper materials, yet
also the proper
knowledge to care for
them. Raising baby chicks is relatively
basic, you merely have to give them with the following: A
clean and also cozy
environment A lot of food and also water Focus and also
love Environment Your environment could be a
simple box, aquarium,
pet cat carrier, or guinea
porker cage. Line it with old towels as well as
blankets (without any loose
strings!) to begin, and after a
couple of weeks utilize straw over newspaper.
Keep in mind: Avoid making use of just
paper or other slipper
surface areas-- or your chicks legs can grow
misshapen. You likewise require
something to serve up food and
water in, such as a chicken feeder as well as water
recipe from the feed store, or a pickle container
cover for food and also an animal bird water dispenser from a pet store. Additionally, as the chicks age you can introduce a perch
into the habitat to get them
educated on setting down. Heat To
keep your chicks heat you need to
supply them with a warmth resource.
This could be as easy as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp style light from an equipment store, or an infrared reptile heat
bulb additionally work effectively (my
referral). Chicks need this
heat 24/7 up until their downy fluff is
changed with plumes (which could occupy to 2 months). The freshly
hatched out require a temperature
between 90 and also 100 levels,
and also every week this could
be decreased by
roughly 5 degrees approximately. The warmth source need to be on simply one side of the cage
to allow chicks a variety of
temperature levels. The chicks are your ideal
thermostat- if they are hiding in the
other edge of your heat
light, you should
decrease the temperature level. If
they are surrounding each various other under the
warmth (not simply curling up),
you should include some heat.
Home cleaning
Tidiness is crucial and also it keeps your chicks healthy and
balanced. Make certain to change
the bed linen
usually and
always provide tidy
food and also water Food as well as water.
Chicks grow extremely quick
which requires plenty of tidy
food as well as water. Supply
sufficient whatsoever times as well
as check
typically to avoid thirsty and also
hungry chicks. Chick food is different than adult chicken food, as well as it comes
in both medicated and non-medicated selections. Feed chick food for the
very first 2 months, after that
switch over to a grower food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for an additional 2 months,
then to a slightly
reduced healthy protein feed or a layer feed
(if you have layers). Dirt Some chicks prefer to obtain a running start on taking
filth bathrooms, while others will not use up that activity till 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
few benefits to spending quality time with your chicks. Firstly, they will certainly probably bond with you and also
not escape as grownups. Second, if you
analyze your chicks daily and
enjoy their habits, you can
capture disease or other troubles previously. Watch out for hissing, hopping, or
various other unhealthy
indicators. Make sure to
additionally check out
their poop, as looseness of the bowels can lead
to matted feathers as well
as clogged up cloaca.
Finally, it is necessary to watch out for social concerns, such as the
littlest chick getting badgered. Empty nest disorder So your
chicks are currently completely feathery
and its time for them to leave the
security of your house
as well as move outside right into a cage. Check out our
section on chicken cages to read more
regarding cages and also
proper coop environments.
