perhaps you could look at some hatchery websites and see which ones you like the looks of, there are so many kinds that could be suitable.
my bantam cochins are very friendly, but it depends if they are handled when they are young if they are going to be friendly. I have D'uccles (which teddiliza said are her friendliest) but mine were not handled as chicks and are not "friendly" (not mean, just run from me because they have not been handled), I also have japanese (who teddiliza said hers are not friendly) who are quite friendly (were a girls 4H birds so were handled a lot). If you want a friendly "pet" bird get as chicks and handle them lots! many breeds can be friendly if given the chance, though some would be easier than others.
