For temperament, Australorps are the best. They always come over and are so tame and friendly and make nice noises around you.
My favorite chicken for looks is a Gold Laced Polish.
But for the combo of laying, personality and looks..., yes I agree, Wyandottes.
Although I ordered 8 Blue Laced Reds from Murry McMurry and they all turned out to be splash (white). So I would pick your breeder wisely on that. A breeder that crosses a black with a splash should get 50% blues. MMcM are not in my good books!
