I'd recommend any heavier breed of chicken that comes in a variety they like!

Above are all recognized breeds and varieties for the APA.

Size up the competition and going with the breed that appeals to you is the best breed to procure, because you'll always love it. Dorkings are colorful and have a great personality!

If you want something that is docile and will stand out try showgirls - they are a variety of silkie breed. Put showgirls in the search box and see for yourself.
