My buff Orpington is definitely my friendliest grown chicken. I can pick her up and carry her, pet her, etc. She seeks out attention. My Speckled Sussex is very bold and will allow me to do all of those things too, except she's temperamental and will peck if she's in the mood. I have an Australorp who is the most insane, flighty chicken I've ever seen. I can't get within 5 feet of her unless she's broody.
I'm raising 15 babies now, for myself and a friend. Friendliest out of those are the welsummers and cream legbars. There are 4 of each breed and 2/4 love to cuddle and can't wait to get attention when I go out. Even the welsummer cockerel is friendly. My olive egger is also very friendly so far. I also have a black/blue/unknown Orpington that acts just like my grown Australorp, which is disappointing.
I want to try some Brahmas next year as I hear they are very nice.
