My two hens have been a treat to have since they were babies. Isabeak and Chica are two of the friendliest chickens I have ever met! Every morning I open the coop and they run right out and follow me cooing for treats and attention as they've done since they were just ball of fluff. Isabeak even protects my bantam Popcorn from cats and dogs! When I need new chickens for my flock I will be adding at least one RIR.

I've found that barred rocks are nice chickens to have. My hen Downey is really cute and a little on the plump side but that just adds to it. Though she is very aggressive to my bantam Popcorn and chases her almost everyday. My rooster Buckey I found to be much nicer towards the other chickens and myself, even my other rooster. Nothing that they do is a deal breaker no matter how bossy they can be and if your looking for a friendly, attractive looking chicken I'd go with a barred rock.
