Awesome I am so glad you got to see it! I really dropped the ball on announcing when the episode was going to air, At the time my old computer had died on me so I had no way of telling everyone on BYC :(. I am very happy with second place :) Heck I would have been happy with 3rd, just to have...
Sorry guys, I guess the video is no longer available to view now :( Magnolia is still very much alive and broody more often than not, to this day if I place a light bulb anywhere near her view she is on it like a fly on poo LOL. The video I had on youtube I also had to take down seeing as AFV...
It used to be on their website but is no longer available to view, They played the episode again the day of the super bowl.... I can't post it myself because they now own the rights to the video, that's why I had to take it off this thread. They named the video "High wattage hen"
Yep that was my girl Magnolia!! We took 2nd place :D They flew us out to California for the taping of the show for the weekend, gave us a hefty allowance for spending and we got a chauffer ride to and from the airport. I felt like a celebrity! What an awesome experience it was!
We have a bantam frizzled hen named magnolia, mags for short. Mags is a little different from all the other chickens we have. Last spring I brought home 3 standard sized baby chicks from the feed store. Mags went along for the ride to pick them up, she was broody at the time and anxious to raise...
LOL No she is on a bench in my dining room, I had to take a few pics of her to blow up and bring to americas funniest home videos for the show taping because we couldn't bring her with.
Magnolia living the pampered life since she won 2nd place on Americas funniest home videos

Little update on the video. I sent it into Americas Funniest home videos and am now a finalist for the episode they chose to have it on. They now own the rights to the video so I had to take it off youtube and will have to take it off of here as well. We are flying out to Los Angeles september...

Silkies spend 90% of their lives broody, the ones I had a few years back couldn't be broken of being broody, cold water, wire cages nothing worked, you just have to let her phase out of it or find a local feed store that sells day old chicks?
About 7 years ago we built our first coop. It was 4 ft by 6 ft with a slanted roof. Costed us less than $200. 2 years ago we built a bigger better coop thats 10 by 12 and 10 1/2 ft tall with a 4 ft cedar deck on the front, 5 windows that we picked up brand new for $10 each. we have over 2 grand...
