    Chicken is lethargic with foamy, light yellow poop. Any ideas?

    Hello. My golden comet hen (almost 2 years old) has been acting strange for a few days. She hasn’t been moving around much, has her head tucked in, seems puffed out, and keeps closing her eyes. I have four other hens who all seem fine. Normally, the five of them free range my backyard most of...

    Emergency? Suddenly lethargic chicken

    My golden comet chicken, almost 5 months old, was suddenly very lethargic this morning. She didnt run out of the coop with the rest of the birds, and just stayed on her roosting bar. She doesnt usually let me touch her, but shes letting me pick her up and inspect her without complaint now. Her...

    Soft Egg

    We have a two year old golden comet that has laid a couple soft shelled eggs. We were able to pin point her today and gave her a look over. She appears to be of otherwise good health. Could this uptick in heat be messing with her?

    Golden Comet female feathering in white?

    Hi, so I got some chicks on the first week of May when they were 1 week. I got 2 cinnamon queens and 2 golden comets, all of them appeared to be female (I had doubts about one of the golden comets but that one is definitely female as she's feathering in brown.) They're a little over a month now...

    I need the high egg production from Golden Comets and White Leghorns, and was curious about other's experience concerning the fattening up (I know that they will never reach the weight and size of meat chickens) and meat of White Leghorns and Golden Comets. What is the average meat that is...

    White Spots on Comb - Fowl Pox? (Golden Comets)

    My golden comets are about a year old. None of them appear to have any change in weight, and they're all a bit on the small side. I noticed about three days ago that the faces and combs of three hens in my flock are spotted with white. They don't have any injuries, but the three with the spots...

    1 y/o hens not using roost in coop?

    Hi all, sorry if this is in the wrong forum. I recently got 3 almost 1 y/o (44 weeks I believe) Golden Comet hens that seem to refuse the higher roost ladder that I bought them. They used the ones that came with the pre-fab coop but they're only about an inch off the ground and a couple of the...

    New Member Introduction

    Greetings! I got my first TS gateway chicks in March 2021. I purchased six, thinking a couple of the little leggers wouldn't make it. Well they did, and I shared three of the ladies with a friend, who's now also a proud new chicken mama. Then we got 3 golden comets, one of which was a cross...

    Are my golden comets roosters?

    Hi everyone! This is our first year having chickens. We already had to re-home a Rhode Island Red rooster. I’m not sure if these golden comets are roosters too? They are 6 months old and not laying. Did we really get 3 roosters!

    Golden Comet or Starlight Green Egger?

    Just acquired a few new 7-8 week olds to my flock and I'm questioning the breeds. I was told the left 2 are Starlight Green Eggers, middle is a buff Orpington, next is unknown or possibly Golden Comet, and last is BR which is obvious. The buff looks nothing like my 2 buffs so I don't think she's...
