Looking For Beautiful Breeds

Silkies, Orpingtons, and my ALL-TIME favorite-my Mille Fleur d'Uccles! They have the calmest, sweetest personality of all my birds (from hatch day on...). My rooster is a very protective guy-he would take on my Orp rooster who is 5 times his size, if he could, but he is gentle with his ladies, and loves attention! The hens are all that way too!

Personally I think a beautiful breed is one with very unique characteristics -

Araucanas, Shamos, Polish, Sultans, Houdans, Malays, Asils, Cornish, La Fleche, Langshans, Brahmas, . . . Some examples.

Very true

Questions like this one usually get as many different responces as there are breeds. What breeds are beautiful is going to depend on your personal opinion and taste.

Gotta mention Barnevelders! Even though I am also in love with Orps (esp lavs) and Black Copper Marans and blue eggs, the Barnevelders are my first love! Gold double lacing is so classy!
