Summary

Donald reads a newspaper that the eggs' value is really high and the price amount is increased. Donald know that if he could get rich, he went into the hen-house and changes the music from the player. While the hens dancing and popping their eggs out, Donald collects them as possible and puts into a huge basket. Unfortunately, a rooster standing guard seeking protection revealing Donald and kicks him out. Donald is trying to avoid presence, so he disguised as a female chicken for the rooster's love interest. They danced together, but unfortunately, Donald's disguise falls off with the rubber glove comb constantly coming loose and a caterpillar falling down the back of his suit, he is ever at the risk of being discovered.
