In my opinion so far, Silkies are super friendly.
Only from my personal experiences of owning them several years and reading throughout the BYC community.
I have a Light Brahma rooster and 3 hens that are super friendly. Again, personal experience and the small farm I purchased them from. Their flock was sweet and friendly. This made me choose to own them.
Believe it or not, I have a Black Roundhead Game hen that is as friendly as my Silkies. Which is probably out of character for her breed. She is an exception, a weirdo, LoL.
I have 32 adult chickens in total, 4 separate flocks and 10 different breeds. ....and 35 chicks...
So I don't have a wide experience with too many breeds.
I have:
Light Brahma, roo & hens (4)
Americauna hens (3)
Blue Copper Maran hens (2)
Coachin hens (2)
White Leghorn hens (2)
Rhode Island Red hens (2)
Black Roundhead Game hen (1)
Silkies, Black & white, roos & hens (12)
Satin hen (1)
Red Quill American Game, roo & hens (3)
