Sweet but flighty.

I have kept pure modern game and currently have three modern game/black bearded Belgian crosses, but I have found that they are a lot less tame than any of my other small breed chickens. I have one that no matter what I do is terrified of me, despite the fact I raised her from a chick, her brother and mother both being a lot easier to handle (though never being picked up out of choice). Still, I loved my grandad's modern game as a small child, I would recommend them as a good breed if you have small children and/or not a great deal of space.
