Are salmon favorelles actually as cuddly as they say

[Beau plus penny]

So I've been reading a lot of things online saying salmon favorelles are super friendly like golden retriever vibes is this true

I’ve had four or five and they were all very docile and friendly. I had to be careful not to keep very aggressive hens with them cause they wouldn’t put up much of a fight.

With the caveat that I’ve only had them for a little over 3 months- mine have been very enthusiastic to get up in my lap (though not as insistent about it as my Wyandotte, Sophie, who will zero in on a lap or even an outstretched arm as soon as it becomes available, and thereafter refuse to leave) but they’re quite vocal and dramatic about being picked up and a little more picky about being petted (Neck scratches only, and not for too long, unlike Sophie, who is fine with being stroked down her back, and only a little perturbed when picked up.)

They do run to me when they see me, and are very chatty and tend to want to follow me around. A little needy compared to the others- anxious, I think. They seem to find my presence reassuring. And they’re very sweet once they’ve cuddled down for a nap. Today they huddled up on me just as it started raining, and I felt terribly guilty standing back up to get under cover.

ETA- their names are Becca (like bec-KAW!) and Sandra Dee.

Depends, some are, some aren't. Most chickens in general aren't cuddly though even if they're friendly (my birds are friendly but not cuddly). Most salmon faverolles are good natured and docile though

I've had salmon favorolles before. While not "cuddly" per se (I've never had a chicken who wanted to be hugged) they were very docile and friendly, and didn't shy away from touch as much as other chickens do. They're some of the most soft and gentle birds I've ever worked with. Some people say it's because they're a little stupid, I couldn't tell you one way or another, but they are delightful animals
