What are your favorite breeds of chickens?

[math ace]

I've got EEs, leghorns, Marans, and Wyandottes.

So far my favorites are the Marans. They are just a real even keel.
They are at the top of the pecking order - - but not pushy about it.
They are so excited to see us coming that they run to us - - It is like watching Dinosaurs run


THUMP
THUMP
THUMP.

Way too funny ! ! !

I loooove my silkies and brahmas! Both breeds are gentle, good mothers and the roosters are nice! Brahmas get so big and lay nice brown eggs(or at least mine do) Both breeds, especially silkies, go broody and will raise their own babies too

It really depends on what day it is....................my favorite is subject to change.
Right now my favorite beauty is a Blue Maran hen.
My favorite chicken is a small BR named sweetie. She follows me around the barn until I pick her up and carry her around with me.Hard to say favorite breed...............
Have been eyeing Silkies...( like I need another breed )

Besides those I have and Rocks in general my next fav would be SS then GL wyandottes. But I think my PPR are the best.

I have a Welsummer pullet who was like that, too. One day she pecked at my legs & I picked her up & held her & then pushed her down on the ground & made her lay still for a minute & then let her up. She never has acted up again.

I love my Welsummers, my Blue Andalusians, my Blue Rocks, but if I had to pick just one---it would be my Ameracauanas! gotta have those blue eggs!
