I have Barred Rocks--they seem quite hardy (mine free-range), and goodness knows they lay well (with virtually no change at all during the winter; the only extra light they've had is from the heat lamp on some really frigid nights). They are reasonably friendly--or at least they recognise that when I am carrying something it's worth coming at a dead run! (I didn't handle them as much as I probably should have as they grew up, so they aren't "cuddly.") One rooster was a bahstid and succumbed recently to, er, lead poisoning... But the other two have always been quite respectful.
