Chickens should be picked on a number of reasons....What I'm looking for is your opinions.lol. But I have some Minorca's and WLH's around my way as well as Wyndottes (Gold & Sliver & blue, red) and Araucana's. But I can almost get any breed from shipping.
Climate- many breeds are better suited for hot climates, and many for cold... so depends on where you are or what type of shelter you can provide
Space- some breeds don't do well confined to small spaces, some prefer them... some breeds are flighty and will roost in trees, some need low perching and stick around the hen yard
Personality- some are very friendly and docile and are frequently better suited to handling or being around kids.... some breeds are standoffish and more assertive
Use- Some breeds lay a lot of eggs, or eggs of varying colors, some breeds are more intended for meat production and eggs are a laid, but not as many
Broody- some breeds go broody often, some rarely... what do you like?
So given all of these variables you can understand why others can't just tell you what you should raise? Now if you answer some of the above with your preferences then maybe folks can be better able to give you ideas of breeds you will enjoy having
