They're beautiful, as well as kind! 😊 Thankfully, life offers infinite variety and color, and your hens are a wonderful example of that. Thank you for sharing!
That just sounds so frustrating! 😕 So much can depend on the individual bird, however in this case? I've heard similar things about the Lavender Orpington as well. In my own experience, when If a friendly, docile flock is what you're after, I'd strongly recommend Cochin chickens, or even Bantam...
I'm a couple days early, but here's some mid-week cuteness for fluff-lovers ♥️

Both are Mottled Bantam Cochins, about 6 month old.
