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

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

Feeding Baby Quail Chicks in
Viola, Tennessee
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
Viola Tennessee 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 Viola,
Tennessee Baby chicks are quite
cute as well as
hard to withstand,
yet it's ideal to prepare for their
arrival before you get them. Prepare first
by collecting not only the
correct materials, but
likewise the correct
expertise to look after
them. Raising baby chicks is fairly
simple, you simply should offer them with the following: A
clean and cozy
habitat Lots of food as well
as water Focus as well as
love Environment Your habitat can be a
simple box, aquarium,
pet cat provider, or guinea
porker cage. Line it with old towels as well as
blankets (without loose
strings!) to start, and after a
couple of weeks utilize straw over paper.
Note: Avoid using just
newspaper or various other slipper
surface areas-- or your chicks legs could expand
malformed. You also require
something to provide food and
water in, such as a chicken feeder as well as water
dish from the feed store, or a pickle container
cover for food and a family
pet bird water dispenser from a pet store. Also, as the chicks grow older you can present a perch
into the environment to obtain them
educated on setting down. Warmth To
maintain your chicks warm you should
offer them with a heat source.
This could be as straightforward as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp design lamp from an equipment store, or an infrared reptile heat
light bulb likewise work extremely well (my
suggestion). Chicks need this
heat 24/7 till their downy fluff is
replaced with plumes (which can take up to 2 months). The newly
hatched require a temperature
in between 90 and also 100 degrees,
as well as each week this could
be decreased by
about 5 levels approximately. The warmth resource ought
to get on merely one side of the cage
to allow chicks an array of
temperature levels. The chicks are your finest
thermostat- if they are concealing in the
contrary edge of your heat
lamp, you should
reduce the temperature. If
they are surrounding each other under the
warmth (not merely curling up),
you need to add some heat.
Home cleaning
Sanitation is key as
well as it keeps your chicks healthy and
balanced. Be sure to change
the bed linens
often and
consistently give tidy
food and also water Food as well as water.
Chicks grow very fast
which needs a lot of tidy
food as well as water. Provide
enough whatsoever times as well
as examine
frequently to prevent parched and also
hungry chicks. Chick food is various than grown-up chicken food, and it comes
in both medicated and non-medicated ranges. Feed chick food for the
initial 2 months, after that
switch over to a grower food (~ 17 %
protein) for another 2 months,
and then to a slightly
reduced protein feed or a level feed
(if you have layers). Dirt Some chicks prefer to obtain a head start on taking
dust bathrooms, while others won't take
up that task till they are
older. If you have the space in your chick
room, present a tray of sand or
filth for them to wash in.
Interest as well as love There are a
few advantages to spending quality time with your chicks. To start
with, they will probably bond with you and
not flee as grownups. Second, if you
examine your chicks daily as well as
enjoy their actions, you can
capture health problem or various
other troubles earlier. Watch out for wheezing, limping, or
various other harmful
indicators. Be sure to
also look at
their poop, as diarrhea could lead
to matted feathers and obstructed cloaca.
Finally, it is necessary to look out
for social problems, such as the
tiniest chick obtaining picked
on. Vacant nest disorder So your
chicks are now completely feathered
and its time for them to leave the
safety of your house
and also move outside into a cage. Have a look at our
section on chicken cages for more information
concerning coops as well as
correct cage habitats.
