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.
