Hm, I always loved my purebred Ameraucanas, they look wonderful and all the ones I raised so far just have the most amazing temperament.
Now that I have my Malay, Saipan, Cubalayas, Brabanters, OEGBs, Leghorns and Kraienkoppes from Ideal I must say the Saipans, Malay and Kraienkoppes are and will stay my favorit if their temperament stays this way. They are the most outgoing little things, and always huddling up with me when I sit down in their brooder.
OK, the Malay are the ugliest things right now, they kind of remind you of some sort of prehistoric terror-bird, short massive head, long snake-like neck, round body and long thick legs. Heavy too.
The Saipans are the tamest tho, all 8 love to sit on my lap or shoulder and go to sleep. Or just cuddle up to me and preening or just sitting there enjoying scritches. Almost equally ugly like the malays, the saipans just have more feathers(the malays feather out terribly slow) and slender heads.
So I guess my fave list goes like this:
1.Saipan
2.Malay
3. Kraienkoppe/Ameraucana
