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

Typically hatcheries online offer both standard breeds

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
Morgantown 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 Morgantown,
West Virginia Baby chicks are very
adorable as well as
difficult to stand up to,
yet it's ideal to plan for their
arrival prior to you obtain them. Prepare initially
by collecting not just the
proper products, yet
also the appropriate
knowledge to look after
them. Raising baby chicks is relatively
straightforward, you just have to provide them with the following: A
clean and also cozy
habitat Plenty of food as well
as water Focus and also
love Environment Your habitat could be a basic box, aquarium,
feline provider, or guinea
porker cage. Line it with old towels and
coverings (with no loosened
strings!) to begin, and after a few weeks utilize straw over paper.
Note: Avoid utilizing just
newspaper or various other sandal
surfaces-- or your chicks legs could grow
malformed. You likewise need
something to serve up food as well as
water in, such as a chicken feeder and water
recipe from the feed store, or a pickle container
cover for food and also a pet dog bird water dispenser from a pet store. Also, as the chicks get
older you can present a perch
into the habitat to obtain them
trained on perching. Warmth To
maintain your chicks heat you have to
give them with a heat resource.
This could be as easy as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp style lamp from a
hardware shop, or an infrared reptile warmth
light bulb additionally function effectively (my
suggestion). Chicks require this
heat 24/7 until their downy fluff is
changed with feathers (which can use
up to 2 months). The freshly
hatched out need a temperature
between 90 as well as 100 levels,
and also every week this can
be lowered by
about 5 levels or
so. The warmth resource need to get on merely one side of the cage
to enable chicks an array of
temperature levels. The chicks are your finest
thermostat- if they are concealing in the
other corner of your heat
lamp, you should
lower the temperature. If
they are smothering each other under the
heat (not just snuggling),
you should put some heat.
Housekeeping
Cleanliness is essential and it maintains your chicks healthy and
balanced. Make certain to change
the bed linen
usually as well as
always provide tidy
food as well as water Food and water.
Chicks expand extremely quickly
which requires a lot of clean
food and also water. Supply
enough at all times and also check
often to avoid dehydrated as well as
starving chicks. Chick food is various compared
to grown-up chicken food, as well as it can be found in both medicated and non-medicated varieties. Feed chick food for the
initial two months, then
switch to a grower food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for one more 2 months,
then to a slightly
reduced protein feed or a layer feed
(if you have layers). Dirt Some chicks want
to obtain a running start on taking
dirt baths, while others will not use up that activity until they are
older. If you have the room in your chick
enclosure, introduce a tray of sand or
dirt for them to wash in.
Interest as well as love There are a
few benefits to hanging
out with your chicks. First of all, they will certainly probably bond with you and
not run away as grownups. Second, if you
analyze your chicks daily as well as
see their habits, you could
catch illness or other problems earlier. Keep an
eye out for hissing, hopping, or
other unhealthy
signs. Be sure to
also take a look at
their poop, as looseness of the bowels can lead
to matted plumes as well
as clogged cloaca.
Lastly, it is necessary to look out
for social issues, such as the
littlest chick getting 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 house
as well as move outside right into a cage. Have a look at our
part on chicken cages to get more information
about cages and also
appropriate cage environments.
