Least flighty/most friendly blue egg layers?

[TexasBlues]

I saw a Shetland rooster for sale on Craigslist. I’d never heard of them before.
My 9 whiting true blues range from extra friendly to deathly scared of me. Must be a personality thing. They were all hatched and raised exactly the same.

I should have just gotten the Shetland hens and I would have been happy.

Instead I got Phoenix, Spitzhauben, Ameraucana and now English Orpingtons. Goal was crested, long tailed blue/green laying chickens. Could have just gotten Shetlands and Schijndel. I would be happier I think.

that’s a bummer, but also how chicken math happens . If you decide you want Shetland or Schijndelaar, feel free to message. I actually have both. Right now the Schijndelaar girls are in with the Shetlands because I don’t have a Schijn roo. Also I can tell the eggs apart because the Schijndelaar are a very powder blue and the Shetlands are more elongated eggs
This is an example of the purple minions just hopping out last night

It'll be a few years before I look at more chickens. I have a dozen silver LF Ameraucana eggs, half a dozen blue Ameraucana eggs and half a dozen bantam silver Ameraucana eggs coming in April or May.
