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

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

was worth it! How to Care for your new baby chickens in Morgan Mill,
Texas Baby chicks are very
charming and also
hard to resist,
but it's best to plan for their
arrival prior to you get them. Prepare initially
by gathering not just the
correct materials, however
additionally the correct
knowledge to look after
them. Raising baby chicks is relatively
easy, you just need
to supply them with the following: A tidy and also warm
environment Plenty of food and also water Attention and also
love Habitat Your environment could be an easy box, aquarium,
feline carrier, or guinea
porker cage. Line it with old towels as well as
coverings (without any loosened
strings!) to begin, and also after a few weeks use straw over paper.
Note: Avoid making use of just
newspaper or various other slipper
surface areas-- or your chicks legs could expand
malformed. You likewise require
something to dish out food and
water in, such as a chicken feeder and also water
meal from the feed shop, or a pickle jar
lid for food and also a pet bird water dispenser from an animal store. Additionally, as the chicks grow older you can introduce a perch
right into the habitat to obtain them
educated on perching. Heat To
keep your chicks warm you should
give them with a heat resource.
This could be as simple as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp style light from an equipment shop, or an infrared reptile heat
light bulb likewise work effectively (my
recommendation). Chicks require this
heat 24/7 until their downy fluff is
changed with plumes (which can occupy to two months). The newly
hatched out need a temperature level
in between 90 and also 100 degrees,
and also every week this could
be decreased by
roughly 5 levels approximately. The heat source need to get on just one side of the cage
to allow chicks an array of
temperature levels. The chicks are your ideal
thermostat- if they are hiding in the
other edge of your heat
light, you need to
decrease the temperature. If
they are smothering each other under the
warmth (not merely curling up),
you have to include some heat.
Home cleaning
Tidiness is vital and also it keeps your chicks healthy. Make sure to transform
the bed linen
usually and
always provide clean
food as well as water Food as well as water.
Chicks grow quite quickly
which calls for a lot of clean
food and also water. Give
sufficient at all times as well
as examine
typically to prevent parched as well as
starving chicks. Chick food is different compared
to grown-up chicken food, and it is available in both medicated and non-medicated ranges. Feed chick food for the
very first two months, after that
change to a grower food (~ 17 %
protein) for another 2 months,
and after that to a slightly
lower protein feed or a level feed
(if you have layers). Dirt Some chicks want
to get a head start on taking
filth baths, while others will not use up that task up until they are
older. If you have the room in your chick
unit, present a tray of sand or
dirt for them to shower in.
Attention and also love There are a
few benefits to spending time with your chicks. First of all, they will certainly more than likely bond with you as well as
not escape as adults. Second, if you
examine your chicks daily and
enjoy their actions, you could
capture disease or other problems previously. Keep an
eye out for wheezing, hopping, or
various other unhealthy
indications. Make certain to
likewise look at
their poop, as looseness of the bowels could bring about matted plumes and also obstructed cloaca.
Lastly, it is important to keep an eye out for social concerns, such as the
tiniest chick getting teased. Empty nest syndrome So your
chicks are currently completely feathered
as well as its time for them to leave the
safety of your house
and move outside into a cage. Look into our
part on chicken coops to get more information
concerning coops and
proper coop habitats.
