Yours is the first list based on being kissable.(1.) Marans. My favorite large fowl breed for many reasons. First, and oftentimes only, thing that comes to mind when people think of Marans is those trademark dark eggs. However, this is far from their only defining feature!Who can forget the huge array of color options available around the world? And what about that personality the size of the Empire State Building? Let's just say I can't escape my Marans, no matter how hard I try.
(2.) Speckled Sussex. Beautiful, stunning, flashy, affectionate, clingy, intelligent, gorgeous, quirky, and did I mention BEAUTIFUL? There's honestly nothing bad to say about this breed. Other than the fact that I received a swollen lip from my Mairead, who attempted to kiss me back.
(3.) Barred Rock. Truly one one of the most manipulative, demanding breeds out there. If I don't feed the flock in time, according to Baby, she feels the need to outright flog my leg as due punishment. If I don't place fully capable Petra on the roost every night, she will scream disruptively and give chase until she gets what she wants. What can I say, I'm a slave.
(4.) d'Uccle. All-time favorite bantam breed for hens, hands down. Heed my warning....if you want to get anything done, don't add d'Uccles to the flock. They will consume every bit of your time if you let them. Most ironic part is, though I don't need/want any more for my sake, somehow the number keeps growing! Someone help....they're like a weed.A lovable weed.
(5.) Old English Game bantams. Best roosters out there! The hens range unreliably from either overly affectionate, to untouchable, but most males are wonderful even as cockerels. Little Kisses joins us in the house often for treats and....kisses.He's my baby.
