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 Bally Pennsylvania
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
Bally Pennsylvania * 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

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
Bally Pennsylvania 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 Bally,
Pennsylvania Baby chicks are extremely
cute and also
hard to stand up to,
but it's best to prepare for their
arrival prior to you obtain them. Prepare initially
by compiling not just the
correct products, however
also the correct
knowledge to take care of
them. Raising baby chicks is reasonably
basic, you merely need
to supply them with the following: A
clean as well as cozy
habitat Plenty of food and water Attention and also
love Habitat Your environment could be a
simple box, aquarium,
cat service provider, or guinea
porker cage. Line it with old towels and also
coverings (without any loosened
strings!) to begin, as well as after a few weeks use straw over newspaper.
Note: Avoid utilizing just
paper or other sandal
surface areas-- or your chicks legs could grow
misshapen. You additionally need
something to provide food and
water in, such as a chicken feeder as well as water
recipe from the feed store, or a pickle jar
cover for food and also an animal bird water dispenser from a pet store. Likewise, as the chicks get
older you can present a perch
into the habitat to obtain them
trained on perching. Heat To
maintain your chicks warm you have to
supply them with a heat resource.
This can be as straightforward as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp style light from a
hardware shop, or an infrared reptile warmth
light bulb additionally function effectively (my
recommendation). Chicks require this
warmth 24/7 until their downy fluff is
changed with plumes (which can take up to 2 months). The freshly
hatched need a temperature level
between 90 as well as 100 degrees,
and each week this could
be minimized by
about 5 levels approximately. The heat resource need to be on simply one side of the cage
to enable chicks a variety of
temperatures. The chicks are your finest
thermometer- if they are concealing in the
contrary corner of your warmth
light, you need to
decrease the temperature level. If
they are smothering each various other under the
heat (not just curling up),
you need to put some heat.
Housekeeping
Sanitation is key as
well as it keeps your chicks healthy. Make sure to transform
the bed linens
typically as well as
constantly provide clean
food as well as water Food and also water.
Chicks expand extremely quick
which requires lots of tidy
food and also water. Supply
sufficient at all times and also examine
usually to prevent thirsty and also
starving chicks. Chick food is various compared
to grown-up chicken food, as well as it can be found in both medicated and non-medicated selections. Feed chick food for the
very first two months, then
switch to a raiser food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for another 2 months,
and after that to a slightly
reduced protein feed or a level feed
(if you have layers). Soil Some chicks like to get a head start on taking
filth bathrooms, while others won't occupy that task up until they are
older. If you have the space in your chick
room, introduce a tray of sand or
dirt for them to shower in.
Interest and love There are a
few benefits to spending quality time with your chicks. First of all, they will certainly more than likely bond with you and also
not run away as adults. Second, if you
analyze your chicks daily as well as
view their behavior, you can
capture disease or other troubles earlier. Keep an
eye out for hissing, hopping, or
various other harmful
indicators. Make sure to
also take a look at
their poop, as looseness of the bowels could result in matted plumes as well
as clogged cloaca.
Finally, it is essential to watch out for social concerns, such as the
smallest chick obtaining picked
on. Empty nest disorder So your
chicks are currently totally feathered
and its time for them to leave the
security of your house
and also move outside right into a
coop. Have a look at our
section on chicken coops to get more information
about coops and
correct cage habitats.
