Henery Hawk is a chicken hawk, so naturally he wants a chicken. Bombastic rooster Foghorn Leghorn ("What's the gag--Ah say, what's the gag, son? Gag, that is") doesn't want to be pestered by Henery, so he convinces the little hawk that Sylvester the cat is a hen (who lays eggs, yet). Sylvester gets wise and turns the tables on Foghorn, while a long-suffering barnyard dog with a long-standing grudge against Sylvester also gets in on the act. Finally, Henery figures out a clever plan to expose the "real" chicken, but Foghorn has been keeping on his toes--toes, that is.
