Pros: Lay good eggs, once they're caught they're easy to handle, Beautiful, pretty friendly
Cons: Hard to catch
We have a hen and roo and a couple of their chicks. The roo is currently the friendliest roo we've ever had. He's great at finding treats for his girls and warning them of danger. He's also been great to our new roos that we've ended up with. The hen is pretty great too. She very easy to handle once she's been caught, and is hilarious to watch. Their chicks, which are most likely all guys, so far they are just like their parents, except their faces are whiter way earlier than their parents.

One of their chicks- at 2 months his faces is kind of pink.

Pros: Great egg layers, very friendly, beautiful, easy to keep clean
Cons: they let themselves get picked on
I've had one of these beauties for about 5 years. She is the sweetest hen that we have. She's one of the few birds who you can walk right up to, reach down and pick her up. She's nearing 5 years old and is still constantly giving us eggs.
I also ended up with a cock this year, and he's is a very nice roo.
