Pros: Lays early, Great egg size and frequency, good disposition

Cons: None

Our Golden Sex Link started laying at 17 weeks. She laid 4 double yolkers her first week, then two more a few weeks later. She has laid every single day since she started except for 2 days in 7 months, Her regular eggs are larger than the jumbo size ones at the store, and they are a darkish reddish brown, really nice color. She is not aggressive, but one of the top hens in the pecking order. She just has an air about her, the others bow to her, but she is not mean at all. She comes to me when I call her, and is very curious about people and quite friendly. We have been very pleased with her. I have heard these burn out faster than others, I have not had her that long so I could not say. But so far she has been great! She is by far the best layer we have. She lays her egg very predictably 1 hour after the lights come on every single morning, we have supplemented light for winter.

Nice summary about GSL. Mine has retired, I think that she is in the neighborhood of 3-years old. I miss those 7 jumbo eggs-per-week. In the future when I need to replenish my flock GSL will be at the top of my list. Thanks for the information.
