Any kind of bantam, polish, nn, bantam colored layers, and bantam mutts

Ooh yes bantams are cute, never had Polish but I think they look funky.. (in a good way, I like them)

Honestly if I had to pick a favorite I wouldn't be able to. I am in love with every chicken there is is, even the ones I don't have. And don't forget the mutts, who are possibly the world's best chickens!

Haha I honestly couldn’t agree more!!

I have 5 chickens, all different breeds and like them all(not overly fond of my blue orp because of her nutty, everyone is out to get me, personality, but I still like her) other than that I don't have anything else to go off of until next spring

I see, I see

Dorkings, always. Such sweet, docile, lovable birds they are.

Honorable mention to my Old English Game bantams and silkied Cochin bantams. I also adore them, but there's something about those Dorks that just can't be beat.

Never owned Dorkings, read all about them and they look really cool!
If you have any... mind sending some photos

I love my Sulmtaler. For me the perfect breed. I like the looks, that just 2-4 weeks after the hatch I can tell if they are male or female. I get eggs and great tasting meat... and they have a nice personality. Of course everyone has different likes. And they are looking for different things in chickens. eggs, meat, pet...

Yep, never heard of them though. Could you send photos please?..

Actually can everyone post photos please?

I love all my birds! I have barred rocks, Australorps, GLW, ISA brown, New Hampshire, Easter Egger, sapphire gem, rustic rambler (a BSL Marans cross), and Olive eggers. My favorite looking one is one of my Olive eggers (she looks like a frosted white Legbar). My friendliest 3 are a Rustic Rambler, a Barred Rock & an ISA. No one is laying yet, so will be interested to see if/how personality changes then! They are all friendly, although there are a few more skiddish than the rest (none of the same breed).
Here’s a few pics!
