Well, you were all right! Everything went well. I was shocked to see Goldie kicking some butt! Garden Gal, your're comment about Goldie beating the tar out of anyone that looked sideways at Nugget was right on. I couldn't believe my tiny little Goldie was able to give them the business. Even my 2 month old Buff Orps are bigger than she is, but let me tell you she meant business. I let them out again this morning and tonight and all went well. Stressed me out beyond belief but I stayed out there with everyone, and Nugget hasn't been touched by not a one of them. Goldie actually chased a couple of my Red Stars down and jumped on their backs! My Goodness, she is one serious Mom.
Thank you everyone for your support. I couldn't have done it without you all!
Good luck to you. Goldie and Nugget are still sleeping in their own separate coop. I'll continue watching everyone while they are out. It certainly makes for very interesting "chicken TV"! Oh, I checked on everyone tonight after they were all settled in and Goldie and Nugget are on a roost together for the first night. So sweet to see him peeking out from under Mom's breast. Very sweet pic. I'll download it for everyone tomorrow. Soooo cute.
