''Walky Talky Hawky'' is a Henery Hawk / Foghorn Leghorn animated short film from Warner Bros. released in 1946 and directed by Robert McKimson . All voice characterizations are performed by Mel Blanc .

Henery Hawk discuss his cravings with his father, who then tells him he is a Chicken Hawk and as such must feed on chickens. Meanwhile, in a barnyard, Foghorn Leghorn and the Barnyard Dawg are fighting.

Henery meets Foghorn, who tells him he is a horse and pretends the dog is a chicken. After a series of pranks and gags where both the dog and Foghorn argue over who is a chicken (with Foghorn famously accusing the Dog, "Don't you, I say don't you call ME a chicken, you chicken!"), and the two of them tangle with a horse, Henery captures Foghorn, the Dog, ''and the horse'', mimicking Foghorn and telling the camera that "...one of these things, I SAY, ONE OF THESE THINGS, has ''got'' to be a chicken!"

The film is mostly notable for being an Academy Award For Animated Short Film Nominee, losing to MGM 's Tom & Jerry cartoon '' The Cat Concerto '', but it is also important for being Foghorn Leghorn 's first appearance. Due to the film's success, the character later came back in a series of short films between 1947 and 1963 .
