So, my son has his heart set on a lap chicken and we are already at our zoning limit so I have to really be careful what I choose. I am going to get him two chicks. Of course any chicken can break breed stereotypes but, in general, what order would you put these chickens in as far as most likely to end up as a lap chicken with gentle loving care and which is the least likely? I just want to pick the two that are going to give me the best chances. I did another post regarding brahma and buff orpington and most think brahma is the better choice but I didn't think to ask about the cochin and barred rock.
Brahma
Cochin
Buff Orpington
Plymouth Rock/Barred Rock
