What kind of chicken do you like the most of these...?

I chose RIR because although I like the feathering on BRs and I think they're really pretty, I've never owned any so I don't know their general personality and behavior...I have, however, a RIR rooster and although he can be a bit aggressive sometimes, he is a sweet rooster.

 

I chose BR I love the coloring and my BR's are way nicer and much more calm then my RIR

 

BRs have a much better personality in my opinion. Not agressive at all. If you are only getting pullets though that isn't as much of an issue.

 

Barred Rocks are awesome. I don't care for hatchery RIR's, but if you can get a hold of some heritage RIR, you'll be very pleased!

 

RIR..I love that dark brownish/auburn color.

 

My BRs are way more calm and friendly than the RIRs. They are too young to lay yet, but as far as personality I vote BR all the way!

 

Barred rocks!!! My barred rocks never attacked me the way a RIR rooster did!

 

My Rhode Island Red is very sweet. She is also my best egg layer. She lays every day!

I think RIR are very pretty. However my BR hens are much more friendly. I had a very mean BR roo though, but he was so handsome.
