When it comes to animal acts on 'AGT', there is no telling what might happen After all, animals are living beings with minds of their own and can certainly choose to do as they please. But for those acts that don't tank entirely, they are almost always a hit with the judges and the audience.

Week 1 of Season 17 saw animal acts like Veranica and her Incredible Friends impress the judges, while acts like Pepino and Goat Yoga had to go home. Now, 11-year-old Zoe and her chicken, Halo, are all set to show the world what they've got.

Zoe explained that she was a chicken trainer and her dream was to win 'AGT'. Kickstarting her performance, she and Halo, her chicken, took on an entire obstacle course, complete with a band performance at the end, with a bunch of other chickens. Howie Mandel was blown away, stating that he had never seen anything like their act before and that was the exact reason why he loved the show. Heidi even joked that if Zoe had the time, she could use some help with her kids. Sofia and Simon both observed that animal acts don't always go according to plan, but Zoe and her chickens did not miss a single beat, making them a delight to watch. Zoe and Halo walked away with four yeses, with Howie joking that he had never gotten a dog to listen as well, while Heidi chimed in that she couldn't even get her kids to listen!

Fans agreed that Zoe was a fantastic trainer. "That 11 year old is a fantastic trainer! The chickens didn’t make any mistakes!  #AGT" tweeted a fan. "The Chicken act was great ! #agt" added another. "A chicken trainer now that is something fun something fun. I definitely enjoyed this act. I love kids I love animals" said a fan.
