Golden Comet (Chick/Female/Pullet)

  • Sale
  • Regular price $6.75


The Golden Comet is a top egg production variety. 

This breed is one of the most hardy and productive birds we offer. 

The hens lay good-sized eggs that have strong shell quality. 

They are very similar to a NOVOgen but with more of a golden buff color.

At 20 weeks of age, their first 76 weeks of laying, with proper care, they produce 10% more eggs and eat 30% less feed than a normal large breed hen. They are excellent at free-ranging  and are gentle and easy to work with.

They have smaller bodies and are not meat or dual-purpose birds.
