golden comets

i got the hens at the sale barn and they guy says he buys them by the hundreds from a company, so i was a little iffy about it just didnt want to come home empty handed.
 
KyleD. :

will they lay well? i just bought a rooster and 3 hens, wondering if the hens will be good layers?

We have 3 Golden Comet hens. They are such good girls! They lay lots of big brown eggs for us. The are very friendly and follow us around.
You should be happy with them.​
 
I also love my Golden Comets. I first bought three from a friend, then was lucky enough to find a man just about an hour from me who had GC pullets, 17 weeks old. Bought 15 more, they are wonderful, laying well, and lo and behold he had some more. So I bought 15 more, figuring they are 6 months younger than the others and may moult at a slightly different time, and my friend also got 6. They are just begining to lay, we eat well, the dogs eat very well, and we have eggs to sell. Now if the Khaki Campbell duck would start to lay it would be perfect.
 
Yes they are good layers. They are red sexlink comersial bred brown egg layers. I have Isa Browms that are the same just a different name. Unbeleviable layers.
 
I'm delighted with mine. Had them since less than 12 hours old

getting an average of 11.5 eggs daily from 12 hens now. Friendly, healthy, I was lucky and next year I'll get 12 more. Our co-op has a reputation for providing excellent chicks.
