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

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
Pocasset Oklahoma 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 Pocasset,
Oklahoma Baby chicks are really
charming as well as
tough to resist,
however it's finest to plan for their
arrival prior to you obtain them. Prepare first
by compiling not just the
proper products, yet
likewise the proper
understanding to look after
them. Raising baby chicks is relatively
easy, you simply need
to provide them with the following: A tidy and cozy
environment Plenty of food and also water Attention and also
love Habitat Your environment can be a
simple box, fish tank,
cat service provider, or guinea
porker cage. Line it with old towels and
coverings (with no loosened
strings!) to begin, as well as after a
couple of weeks use straw over newspaper.
Keep in mind: Avoid using only
paper or other slipper
surfaces-- or your chicks legs could grow
misshapen. You additionally require
something to dish out food and
water in, such as a chicken feeder as well as water
dish from the feed shop, or a pickle jar
lid for food and also an animal bird water dispenser from a family pet store. Likewise, as the chicks grow older you could introduce a perch
into the environment to get them
educated on setting down. Warmth To
keep your chicks warm you should
provide them with a heat resource.
This could be as simple as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp design lamp from an equipment store, or an infrared reptile warmth
bulb likewise work effectively (my
recommendation). Chicks need this
heat 24/7 till their downy fluff is
changed with plumes (which could occupy to two months). The newly
hatched require a temperature level
between 90 and also 100 levels,
as well as every week this could
be minimized by
approximately 5 levels approximately. The heat source need to get on simply one side of the cage
to permit chicks an array of
temperatures. The chicks are your best
thermostat- if they are hiding in the
contrary corner of your warmth
lamp, you need to
lower the temperature. If
they are surrounding each other under the
warmth (not simply curling up),
you should put some warmth.
Home cleaning
Sanitation is essential as
well as it maintains your chicks healthy. Make certain to transform
the bed linens
commonly and also
always give tidy
food and water Food as well as water.
Chicks grow really fast
which needs lots of tidy
food as well as water. Give
enough whatsoever times and also inspect
typically to prevent dehydrated and
starving chicks. Chick food is different compared
to grown-up chicken food, as well as it comes
in both medicated and
also non-medicated varieties. Feed chick food for the
initial 2 months, then
switch over to a grower food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for one more 2 months,
and after that to a slightly
lower protein feed or a layer feed
(if you have layers). Dirt Some chicks like to get a head start on taking
dust baths, while others won't use up that activity up until they are
older. If you have the room in your chick
room, introduce a tray of sand or
dust for them to bathe in.
Interest and also love There are a
few advantages to spending time with your chicks. First off, they will certainly most
likely bond with you and
not run away as grownups. Second, if you
examine your chicks daily and also
see their behavior, you can
capture illness or other troubles earlier. Keep an
eye out for wheezing, limping, or
various other unhealthy
indicators. Make sure to
also consider
their poop, as diarrhea can cause matted feathers and also stopped up cloaca.
Lastly, it is very
important to keep an eye out for social issues, such as the
littlest chick getting badgered. Empty nest syndrome So your
chicks are currently completely feathered
and its time for them to leave the
safety and security of your home
as well as move outside into a cage. Look into our
part on chicken cages to find out
more
about coops and also
correct coop environments.
