I really love the cayugas just because they're sweet and pretty. Mine aren't loud at all. Rouens lay kind of a greenish egg and mine is pretty talkative. My pekin lays white eggs, but she's so funny and loves to talk to you! I know that a lot of people don't want the rouens because 1. the are common and 2. they look like mallards, but I love my rouen girl. She's a doll. She is the first to come to me and hang out, although my pekin is right behind her.
I have a black cayuga hen and a blue cayuga drake. They're very quite but so pretty and sweet. I guess it depends too one what you like for looks. You could just get some blue cayugas. Then, you get the major cuteness and tinted eggs... although they aren't loud. Darn lol!
