Last on my list is Iowa Blues. The rooster is lovely, but neither he nor any of the four hens I've had show the slightest inclination toward friendliness or returning to the coop after free-ranging all day. I finally gave up and keep Sir Henry the Loud and his girls in a coop with a run because I got tired of chasing them every single day.
The hens aren't particularly productive and the eggs are medium sized. They're not horrible birds, but there are so many more that I like more.
