Sorry to be annoying, but I dont think it’s a golden comet. They usually have a little more orange and/or white, less buff color.

since they are mixed breeds, every chick is different.

In certain hybrids, the offspring are very predictable. For instance, black sex link (Rhode Island red x barred rock) hens are always mostly black and BSL roosters are always black with a single copy of the barring gene.

I know that. But even then, you might get one that looks a bit off.

Maybe, but most gold comets do have dominant white, causing white feathers in place of black.

Maybe, but you will never get a gold comet with barring like the OP’s bird has.

It's a calico princess, aren't they supposed to have barring? I wasn't referring to the OPs bird when I made that comment to nrs3, just chickens in general.
