I want chickens as pets but have no intention of hatching eggs. What type of chicken is a friendly, good layer that doesn’t often go broody?
I have 4 Red Sussex hens they are great, you have to teach them to be friendly – it took ours about a week..
Austrolorps are also good.
Silkies too but can be broody which really shouldnt matter you collect the eggs so they wont be broody with nothing to sit on.
here is a link for pet chicken breeds.
