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

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
Albany Wisconsin 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 Albany,
Wisconsin Baby chicks are quite
charming and
tough to stand up to,
however it's ideal to prepare for their
arrival prior to you get them. Prepare first
by compiling not only the
proper materials, yet
also the correct
understanding to look after
them. Raising baby chicks is relatively
straightforward, you merely have to supply them with the following: A tidy as well as warm
habitat A lot of food as well
as water Focus and also
love Environment Your environment can be an easy box, aquarium,
cat carrier, or guinea
pig cage. Line it with old towels and
coverings (without any loosened
strings!) to start, and also after a
couple of weeks use straw over newspaper.
Keep in mind: Avoid using just
newspaper or various other slipper
surface areas-- or your chicks legs could grow
misshapen. You likewise require
something to provide food and
water in, such as a chicken feeder as well as water
recipe from the feed shop, or a pickle jar
lid for food and also a family
pet bird water dispenser from an animal store. Also, as the chicks age you could introduce a perch
into the environment to obtain them
trained on setting down. Warmth To
maintain your chicks warm you should
provide them with a warmth source.
This can be as basic as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp design light from an equipment shop, or an infrared reptile heat
bulb additionally work very
well (my
suggestion). Chicks require this
warmth 24/7 up until their downy fluff is
replaced with feathers (which can occupy to two months). The recently
hatched need a temperature level
between 90 and 100 degrees,
as well as weekly this can
be decreased by
roughly 5 levels approximately. The warmth resource must be on simply one side of the cage
to permit chicks a variety of
temperature levels. The chicks are your best
thermometer- if they are concealing in the
other edge of your warmth
lamp, you need to
decrease the temperature. If
they are surrounding each various other under the
warmth (not merely snuggling),
you have to add some heat.
Housekeeping
Tidiness is crucial and it maintains your chicks healthy and
balanced. Be sure to change
the bedding
frequently and also
always provide tidy
food as well as water Food and water.
Chicks expand really quick
which calls for lots of clean
food and water. Provide
sufficient whatsoever times as well
as inspect
frequently to
stop thirsty and also
starving chicks. Chick food is various than adult chicken food, as well as it is available in both medicated as well as non-medicated selections. Feed chick food for the
first two months, then
switch over to a grower food (~ 17 %
protein) for one more 2 months,
and afterwards to a slightly
lower healthy protein feed or a level feed
(if you have levels). Dirt Some chicks want
to get a running start on taking
dirt bathrooms, while others will not take
up that task till they are
older. If you have the space in your chick
enclosure, present a tray of sand or
dust for them to bathe in.
Attention and love There are a
few benefits to spending quality time with your chicks. To start
with, they will certainly more than likely bond with you as well as
not escape as grownups. Second, if you
examine your chicks daily and also
view their actions, you could
capture ailment or various
other troubles earlier. Keep an
eye out for wheezing, limping, or
various other undesirable
indications. Be sure to
also consider
their poop, as looseness of the bowels can cause matted plumes and also obstructed cloaca.
Lastly, it is important to keep an eye out for social concerns, such as the
littlest chick getting badgered. Empty nest syndrome So your
chicks are now totally feathery
as well as its time for them to leave the
safety of your home
as well as relocate outside into a
coop. Have a look at our
section on chicken cages to learn more
regarding cages as well as
proper coop environments.
