Welcome to BYC! Glad you decided to join our flock. Golden Comet is one of many labels under which some hatcheries market their Red Sex Links which are produced by crossing a red gene rooster (RIR, NHR, or Production Red) with a silver gene hen (WR, RIW, SLW, Delaware, or Light Sussex), and they can be easily identified by color. Males are white with a few reddish feathers in the saddle area, and females are reddish with white underfluff and a few white feathers in the tail area (like yours). Other labels under which hatcheries market Red Sex Links include Red Star, Gold Star, Brown Sex Link, Gold Sex Link, Cinnamon Queen, Golden Buff, Bovans Brown, Hubbard Golden Comet, Isa Brown, Babcock Brown, Shaver Brown, Warrens, HyLines, Gold Lines, Bovans Goldline, Lohmans, and Lohmans Brown, but no matter which names they are marketed under, they are all egg laying machines. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have. We are here to help in any way we can. Good luck with your flock.
