1. Slice* through the top 1/3 of each egg, ensuring some of the yolk is included in the slice. Carefully remove the egg yolk from the bottom portion of the egg using a spoon and transfer to a bowl.
2. Mix egg yolks, mayonnaise, mustard, pickle, horseradish, pickle juice, salt, and pepper together in a bowl.
3. Slice small wedges out of the carrot rounds creating 12 'beaks'. Add a 'beak' to each 'chick'.
4. Slice olive pieces into small squares to be used as 'eyes.' Add 2 'eyes' to each 'chick.'
5. Place the egg tops onto each 'chick' to look like a chick peaking out of the egg.
* To make your chick fancy - you can cut the egg in a zig zag pattern (see photo)
