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
Scottsville Texas 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 Scottsville,
Texas Baby chicks are really
cute as well as
hard to stand up to,
however it's best to plan for their
arrival before you obtain them. Prepare initially
by gathering not only the
correct materials, however
likewise the correct
expertise to look after
them. Raising baby chicks is reasonably
basic, you merely should offer them with the following: A tidy as well as warm and comfortable
habitat A lot of food as well
as water Focus as well as
love Habitat Your environment can be a straightforward box, aquarium,
feline carrier, or guinea
pig cage. Line it with old towels and also
coverings (without loose
strings!) to start, and after a few weeks utilize straw over newspaper.
Note: Avoid utilizing just
newspaper or other sandal
surfaces-- or your chicks legs could expand
malformed. You additionally need
something to dish out food as well as
water in, such as a chicken feeder and also water
recipe from the feed store, or a pickle jar
cover for food as well as a pet bird water dispenser from a family pet shop. Likewise, as the chicks get
older you can present a perch
into the environment to get them
educated on perching. Warmth To
keep your chicks warm you need to
offer them with a heat resource.
This could be as straightforward as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp design lamp from a
hardware shop, or an infrared reptile warmth
light bulb additionally work very
well (my
referral). Chicks need this
warmth 24/7 till their downy fluff is
replaced with plumes (which could occupy to 2 months). The recently
hatched out need a temperature level
in between 90 and also 100 degrees,
as well as each week this can
be decreased by
roughly 5 degrees approximately. The heat resource should get on just one side of the cage
to enable chicks an array of
temperature levels. The chicks are your best
thermostat- if they are concealing in the
opposite corner of your heat
lamp, you have to
minimize the temperature. If
they are surrounding each various other under the
warmth (not simply curling up),
you need to include some heat.
Home cleaning
Cleanliness is key and also it maintains your chicks healthy and
balanced. Be sure to transform
the bed linen
frequently and also
constantly offer tidy
food as well as water Food and also water.
Chicks expand really quick
which requires plenty of tidy
food and also water. Provide
enough at all times as well
as inspect
commonly to prevent thirsty as well as
hungry chicks. Chick food is various than adult chicken food, as well as it is available in both medicated and non-medicated selections. Feed chick food for the
very first two months, then
switch over to a raiser food (~ 17 %
protein) for an additional 2 months,
and afterwards to a somewhat
lower protein feed or a level feed
(if you have layers). Dirt Some chicks like to get a head start on taking
dirt bathrooms, while others will not take
up that task until they are
older. If you have the room in your chick
unit, introduce a tray of sand or
dirt for them to shower in.
Attention and also love There are a couple of benefits to hanging
out with your chicks. Firstly, they will most
likely bond with you and also
not flee as grownups. Second, if you
examine your chicks daily as well as
enjoy their behavior, you can
catch ailment or various
other troubles earlier. Watch out for wheezing, limping, or
other undesirable
indications. Make certain to
also take a look at
their poop, as diarrhea could cause matted feathers and blocked cloaca.
Last but not least, it is important to look out
for social problems, such as the
smallest chick getting picked
on. Empty nest syndrome So your
chicks are currently fully feathered
and its time for them to leave the
safety of your residence
as well as relocate outside into a
coop. Look into our
section on chicken cages to find out
more
about cages and
appropriate coop habitats.
