The film is a war comedy, depicting a war between chickens and ducks over food supplies.
Plot
When Porky goes to feed his hens and chickens, a group of ducks steal the corn he sets out. After sending a document filled with insults from the ducks' "ducktator" (Daffy Duck, a.k.a. "General Quacko"), war erupts between the chickens and the ducks. Newborn chicks form battalions from the moment they hatch, with the chickens digging trenches. The ducks goose-step in the marsh, saluting their general, as they use swans and geese as battlecarriers and airplanes. Porky manages to turn the tide with a machine gun improvised from a wringer washer and a bag of corn.

The copyright date in the opening credits reads 1937.
