Golden Comet female feathering in white?

[PantherWaltz]

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 think, and my favorite gal is becoming very white, which I've read is typical of roosters. Is she a golden comet? Is she a rooster? She started off as buff yellow like a hen would. These pictures were taken a couple days ago. I also added some pictures of her as a chick.

Looks like a red sex link pullet to me. Golden Comets are just one brand of sex links, and I cannot tell them apart. Cockerels are paler as chicks, and should be all white except a little red on the shoulders.

At least she's looking like a pullet then! I can't keep roosters and this one's my favorite, would be sad if I had to get rid of her.
I was told she was a golden comet from my boss, but I know they don't separate the chickens by breed so a mix-up is totally possible. Breed isn't all too important to me anyways, just wanted friendly chickens and well she's friendly as you can see by her standing on my arm.

So long as she came from a hatchery and not from a backyard breeder, I am very confident that it's a red sex link pullet of some kind.

She didn't come from either, she's from a local farm I work at sometimes. They don't normally sell chicks, buy they ended up with more than usual this spring. They have chicks every Spring for a festival they put on for kids. Besides the few they bought, more hatched than anticipated from their own, and they were given donations of chicks. Cinnamon queens and golden comets (well and some kind of zebra looking chickens) are the ones that they normally have/get but this time around there was quite a few different kinds.

Exactly

Odds are good that's a red sexlink of some kind. She will molt a few more times before she reaches mature size, and may lose all those white wing feathers. That's how one of my ISA Browns (specific breed of red sexlink very similar to Golden Comet) ended up with the name Angel - she had the most gorgeous completely white wings as a chick. She molted all that out though and has red wings now, and only some white feathers with red lacing on her back. I should have called her Devil actually, she was the meanest hen we had. Sold her at 1 year cause I was done with her bullying.

Alternatively, if those chicks came from Hoover's Hatchery originally, she may be a Starlight Green Egger, with the red laced white feathers I'm seeing. But you'll have to wait for adult feathering to know really what's going on. My SGEs look very like my golden comet, but lay green eggs.

Also, I agree, she's female.

I think they are golden comets. I have some chicks that are sold as golden comets but some opinions that they are starlight Green Eggers? im gonna post some pics and tell me what u think. I got mine from tractor supply in salsibury, NC. Images 3739 and 3737 have my buff orpington in the pic, the last pic image 3727 was taken about two weeks ago. They are 10 weeks old today. thanks for any help u can give me

Those look like golden comets to me. I've had both.
