Sussex and Cochin are good options. Keep in mind that Sussex tend to be too friendly for their own good and get easily chased off away from the flock. My Speckled Sussex cockerel is much lower on the dominance hierarchy than Slate, who happens to be a Blue Cochin Bantam cockerel who is 1/3 his height. Also, Sussex chicks are a bit on the weak side.
Cochins and Sussex both typically go broody. Sussex are dual-purpose birds and mine don't really want to to eat chicken feed, they would rather be foraging. Cochins do well in the cold but not in the heat. They are usually sweet like Sussex, but Slate is super annoying, albeit very hilarious. Breed only controls personality slightly, everything else is dependent on the one individual.
