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
Hilliards 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

was worth it! How to Care for your new baby chickens in Hilliards,
Pennsylvania Baby chicks are quite
charming and also
difficult to withstand,
yet it's finest to prepare for their
arrival before you obtain them. Prepare first
by compiling not only the
correct products, but
likewise the proper
knowledge to take care of
them. Raising baby chicks is fairly
basic, you merely should provide them with the following: A
clean as well as warm
environment Lots of food as well
as water Attention as well as
love Habitat Your habitat could be a basic box, fish tank,
cat service provider, or guinea
porker cage. Line it with old towels as well as
coverings (with no loose
strings!) to begin, and also after a few weeks use straw over newspaper.
Note: Avoid utilizing just
paper or various other slipper
surfaces-- or your chicks legs could grow
malformed. You likewise require
something to dish out food as well as
water in, such as a chicken feeder as well as water
meal from the feed store, or a pickle jar
lid for food and also an animal bird water dispenser from a
pet dog shop. Additionally, as the chicks get
older you could present a perch
into the habitat to get them
trained on setting down. Warmth To
keep your chicks heat you have to
provide them with a warmth resource.
This can be as straightforward as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp style light from an equipment shop, or an infrared reptile heat
light bulb additionally function effectively (my
suggestion). Chicks need this
heat 24/7 until their downy fluff is
changed with plumes (which could occupy to two months). The freshly
hatched require a temperature
in between 90 and also 100 degrees,
as well as every week this could
be reduced by
approximately 5 levels or
so. The warmth source ought
to get on merely one side of the cage
to enable chicks a variety of
temperatures. The chicks are your finest
thermometer- if they are concealing in the
other edge of your warmth
light, you should
decrease the temperature level. If
they are surrounding each other under the
heat (not merely snuggling),
you should include some warmth.
Home cleaning
Tidiness is crucial as
well as it maintains your chicks healthy and
balanced. Make sure to transform
the bedding
often and
always provide clean
food as well as water Food and water.
Chicks grow really quickly
which needs a lot of tidy
food and also water. Give
sufficient at all times and examine
commonly to
stop thirsty as well as
hungry chicks. Chick food is various compared
to adult chicken food, and also it is available in both medicated and non-medicated varieties. Feed chick food for the
first two months, after that
switch to a raiser food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for an additional 2 months,
and after that to a slightly
lower protein feed or a layer feed
(if you have layers). Soil Some chicks like to get a running start on taking
filth bathrooms, while others will not occupy that task until they are
older. If you have the space in your chick
unit, introduce a tray of sand or
dust for them to wash in.
Attention as well as love There are a couple of benefits to spending quality time with your chicks. To start
with, they will certainly most
likely bond with you and also
not run away as grownups. Second, if you
examine your chicks daily and also
see their behavior, you can
catch disease or other issues earlier. Watch out for hissing, limping, or
other harmful
indications. Make sure to
also look at
their poop, as diarrhea could bring about matted feathers and clogged up cloaca.
Finally, it is necessary to look out
for social problems, such as the
littlest chick obtaining teased. Vacant nest disorder So your
chicks are currently fully feathery
as well as its time for them to leave the
safety and security of your home
and also move outside right into a
coop. Check out our
section on chicken cages to find out
more
concerning coops and
correct coop habitats.
