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
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

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
Crawley West Virginia 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 Crawley,
West Virginia Baby chicks are really
adorable as well as
tough to stand up to,
but it's best to prepare for their
arrival prior to you get them. Prepare first
by gathering not only the
correct products, but
additionally the correct
expertise to look after
them. Raising baby chicks is relatively
simple, you merely need
to give them with the following: A
clean and warm
environment Lots of food and water Focus as well as
love Environment Your habitat can be a straightforward box, aquarium,
cat service provider, or guinea
pig cage. Line it with old towels and
coverings (with no loose
strings!) to start, as well as after a
couple of weeks use straw over newspaper.
Keep in mind: Avoid utilizing only
paper or various other sandal
surface areas-- or your chicks legs could expand
malformed. You also require
something to serve up food as well as
water in, such as a chicken feeder and water
dish from the feed shop, or a pickle jar
cover for food as well as a pet dog bird water dispenser from a family pet shop. Likewise, as the chicks age you can present a perch
into the environment to obtain them
educated on setting down. Warmth To
maintain your chicks heat you need to
offer them with a heat resource.
This can be as basic as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp design lamp from an equipment store, or an infrared reptile warmth
light bulb also work very
well (my
recommendation). Chicks need this
warmth 24/7 up until their downy fluff is
changed with plumes (which could use
up to two months). The newly
hatched out need a temperature
in between 90 and also 100 levels,
and also each week this can
be lowered by
approximately 5 levels approximately. The warmth resource must get on simply one side of the cage
to enable chicks a range of
temperature levels. The chicks are your finest
thermostat- if they are hiding in the
opposite corner of your warmth
light, you have to
reduce the temperature. If
they are smothering each other under the
heat (not just cuddling),
you should put some warmth.
Housekeeping
Cleanliness is key as
well as it maintains your chicks healthy. Make sure to transform
the bed linen
usually and
constantly provide clean
food and water Food and also water.
Chicks grow quite fast
which calls for a lot of tidy
food as well as water. Offer
enough in any way times and also inspect
often to prevent parched and
hungry chicks. Chick food is different than adult chicken food, as well as it can be found in both medicated and
also non-medicated varieties. Feed chick food for the
very first 2 months, after that
change to a grower food (~ 17 %
protein) for one more 2 months,
then to a somewhat
reduced protein feed or a layer feed
(if you have levels). Dirt Some chicks like to get a running start on taking
filth baths, while others will not occupy that activity up until they are
older. If you have the space in your chick
room, introduce a tray of sand or
dust for them to shower in.
Focus and love There are a
few advantages to spending quality time with your chicks. Firstly, they will more than likely bond with you as well as
not flee as adults. Second, if you
examine your chicks daily and also
see their habits, you can
capture illness or various
other issues earlier. Keep an
eye out for hissing, limping, or
various other undesirable
signs. Make sure to
also take a look at
their poop, as diarrhea could lead
to matted plumes as well
as clogged cloaca.
Last but not least, it is essential to look out
for social issues, such as the
littlest chick getting picked
on. Vacant nest syndrome So your
chicks are currently fully feathery
and its time for them to leave the
safety and security of your residence
as well as move outside into a cage. Take a look at our
section on chicken cages to get more information
concerning coops and
correct coop environments.
