I feel that with most animals, personality is really based on the individual, not necessarily the type or species. I had/have three BO hens (well four but one never made it to hen-hood). One loved to be around people, would let me hold her as long as I wanted and let me pick her up all the time. She was a people chicken. Then I had another hen that was extremely difficult to pick up/catch, but once you did would all-out relax and love to be on my lap. Then there's Rosie, who hated being touched, picked up, held and would flap her wings if I ever got her in my arms. Over time the 2nd and last hen got nicer as I spent more time with them, so that is just how they were as pullets. So, what I am saying is it really just depends on the hen.
