    Puzzled in Kentucky.

    Wow didn't know it could be so complicated. I have 6 comets I purchased this spring. They have really grown. I've yet to see what their egg laying abilitys and not sure if I will put them on the table or not. What I do know is that they are the best little chickens as far as temperament friendly...
