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 Devon 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
Devon 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
available * You get to choose what sex you want. If you want a mixture of
both male and female then choosing a "straight run" will save you money
and you will get a mixture of male and female chicks. You can also choose
all males or all females too. * Weekly specials. Hatcheries have sales on
chicks, you are likely to get a good deal if you are flexible with the
breeds you are wanting. Cons of buying baby chicks in Devon

out fast, sometimes as early as 6 months in advance of shipping! If you
are wanting a certain breed it's best to order your chicks in the fall
before their orders sell out.
Baby Chicks Order Online in
Devon, Pennsylvania
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
Devon 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 Devon,
Pennsylvania Baby chicks are quite
adorable and also
tough to resist,
yet it's best to prepare for their
arrival prior to you get them. Prepare initially
by compiling not only the
proper products, but
likewise the correct
understanding to take care of
them. Raising baby chicks is fairly
simple, you just should supply them with the following: A
clean and warm and comfortable
habitat Lots of food and also water Focus and
love Habitat Your habitat can be an easy box, fish tank,
pet cat carrier, or guinea
porker cage. Line it with old towels and
coverings (without any loose
strings!) to begin, as well as after a
couple of weeks utilize straw over paper.
Note: Avoid using only
newspaper or other slipper
surfaces-- or your chicks legs could grow
malformed. You additionally need
something to serve up food and also
water in, such as a chicken feeder and water
recipe from the feed store, or a pickle container
lid for food as well as a pet dog bird water dispenser from an animal shop. Likewise, as the chicks get
older you could introduce a perch
right into the environment to get them
educated on perching. Heat To
maintain your chicks warm you need to
supply them with a warmth source.
This could be as basic as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp design light from an equipment shop, or an infrared reptile heat
light bulb also work effectively (my
referral). Chicks need this
warmth 24/7 till their downy fluff is
changed with plumes (which could occupy to 2 months). The recently
hatched need a temperature
between 90 as well as 100 degrees,
and also each week this can
be decreased by
around 5 levels or
so. The heat source need to be on just one side of the cage
to allow chicks a range of
temperatures. The chicks are your best
thermometer- if they are concealing in the
other edge of your heat
lamp, you should
reduce the temperature level. If
they are smothering each other under the
warmth (not just snuggling),
you need to include some heat.
Home cleaning
Tidiness is key as
well as it maintains your chicks healthy. Make certain to alter
the bed linen
usually and
always offer clean
food and also water Food and water.
Chicks expand extremely quickly
which needs lots of clean
food and also water. Give
sufficient in any way times and also inspect
commonly to prevent thirsty and also
starving chicks. Chick food is different compared
to grown-up chicken food, and also it can be found in both medicated and non-medicated selections. Feed chick food for the
first two months, then
switch over to a raiser food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for one more 2 months,
and then to a slightly
lower protein feed or a level feed
(if you have layers). Soil Some chicks prefer to obtain a running start on taking
dust bathrooms, while others will not occupy that task till they are
older. If you have the area in your chick
room, introduce a tray of sand or
dust for them to wash in.
Attention and love There are a couple of advantages to spending quality time with your chicks. Firstly, they will more than likely bond with you and
not flee as adults. Second, if you
analyze your chicks daily and
view their habits, you can
catch ailment or other troubles previously. Keep an
eye out for hissing, hopping, or
various other undesirable
signs. Be sure to
also check out
their poop, as diarrhea could bring about matted feathers and clogged cloaca.
Last but not least, it is essential to keep an eye out for social issues, such as the
littlest chick obtaining badgered. Vacant nest disorder So your
chicks are now fully feathered
and its time for them to leave the
safety of your residence
and move outside right into a
coop. Have a look at our
area on chicken coops to learn more
about cages and also
proper coop habitats.
