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!

Typically hatcheries online offer both standard breeds

pounds when full grown. Just like ordering anything online there are pros

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
Halsey Oregon 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 Halsey,
Oregon Baby chicks are extremely
adorable and
hard to stand up to,
but it's ideal to prepare for their
arrival before you get them. Prepare initially
by compiling not just the
proper materials, but
also the appropriate
knowledge to care for
them. Raising baby chicks is fairly
simple, you merely have to supply them with the following: A
clean and cozy
environment Lots of food and also water Attention and also
love Habitat Your environment could be a straightforward box, aquarium,
pet cat service provider, or guinea
pig cage. Line it with old towels as well as
blankets (without loosened
strings!) to begin, as well as after a
couple of weeks make use of straw over paper.
Note: Avoid making use of just
newspaper or other slipper
surfaces-- or your chicks legs could grow
misshapen. You also need
something to serve up food and
water in, such as a chicken feeder as well as water
meal from the feed shop, or a pickle container
lid for food as well as an animal bird water dispenser from an animal shop. Also, as the chicks age you could introduce a perch
right into the environment to obtain them
educated on setting down. Heat To
keep your chicks warm you should
supply them with a heat source.
This can be as basic as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp design lamp from a
hardware shop, or an infrared reptile heat
light bulb likewise function effectively (my
referral). Chicks need this
warmth 24/7 till their downy fluff is
changed with feathers (which could take up to two months). The newly
hatched require a temperature level
between 90 as well as 100 degrees,
and every week this can
be decreased by
approximately 5 levels or
so. The warmth source ought
to get on just one side of the cage
to permit chicks an array of
temperature levels. The chicks are your finest
thermostat- if they are concealing in the
opposite corner of your heat
lamp, you have to
minimize the temperature level. If
they are smothering each various other under the
heat (not merely cuddling),
you should include some heat.
Housekeeping
Cleanliness is essential and it maintains your chicks healthy and
balanced. Make certain to transform
the bed linen
frequently as well as
constantly provide tidy
food and water Food and water.
Chicks grow very fast
which calls for a lot of tidy
food as well as water. Provide
enough in any way times and inspect
often to
stop thirsty and also
hungry chicks. Chick food is various compared
to adult chicken food, as well as it is available in both medicated as well as non-medicated ranges. Feed chick food for the
first two months, then
change to a grower food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for one more 2 months,
and after that to a slightly
reduced healthy protein feed or a layer feed
(if you have layers). Soil Some chicks prefer to get a running start on taking
dust bathrooms, while others will not occupy that task up until they are
older. If you have the room in your chick
unit, present a tray of sand or
dust for them to bathe in.
Attention as well as love There are a
few advantages to hanging
out with your chicks. First of all, they will more than likely bond with you as well as
not flee as adults. Second, if you
analyze your chicks daily as well as
enjoy their actions, you could
capture illness or other troubles earlier. Keep an
eye out for hissing, hopping, or
various other unhealthy
indicators. Be sure to
likewise consider
their poop, as diarrhea could lead
to matted plumes as well
as clogged cloaca.
Last but not least, it is essential to watch out for social concerns, such as the
littlest chick obtaining picked
on. Vacant nest syndrome So your
chicks are currently completely feathered
as well as its time for them to leave the
security of your home
and move outside into a
coop. Look into our
section on chicken coops to get more information
regarding coops and
correct cage habitats.
