Golden Comet Pullets
Golden Comets are one of the most popular hybrid hens in the country — and for good reason. A sex-link cross, these birds can be sexed at hatch with 100% accuracy, so you're guaranteed all hens, no surprises.
Known for their warm reddish-gold plumage with occasional white flecking, Golden Comets are medium-sized birds with big production numbers. Expect 5–6 large brown eggs per week, and hens that start laying reliably and early.
Beyond the eggs, Golden Comets are prized for their temperament. They're calm, curious, and people-friendly — known to follow their owners around the yard and tolerate handling well, making them an excellent choice for families and first-time flock owners alike. They're also heat- and cold-hardy, so Maryland weather is no problem year-round.
At a glance:
250–300 brown eggs per year
Docile, low-drama flock members
Sex-linked: guaranteed pullets
Hardy in heat and cold
Beginner-friendly
Also sold under the names Red Star, Cinnamon Queen, and Gold Sex-Link.
