How do people feel about Sebrights?

We have a golden laced sebright, named Lacey that's awesome! She's very vocal and sweet she was flighty as a teenager but calmed down tremendously after she started laying. I have heard that cockerals can tend to be on the aggressive side but idk.

DH told me that if the Brinsea does a good job we can save for another one.    I had been telling him for 2 years that I needed a Brinsea because of all the bad hatches I had. One day he will listen to me. 

I love my brinsea too! Want another one very badly. I purchased a little giant today, we will see how that goes

How many toes? My guess is bantam cochin though

So Cute! 

3 toes. After some research I'm thinking Cochin as well. 5 of them are a white color and 1 is buff. I wanted something that would be broody, I think these will work fine.

I had a golden laced sebright cockerel and he was VERY aggressive and flightly. Gorgeous bird, but not friendly at all!

I hear they are one of the broodier breeds
