Notes
This marked the final entry in a trilogy starring Jimmy Rogers and Noah Beery, Jr. as cowboys "Jim" and "Pidge." For additional information on their films, please see the entry above for Dudes Are Pretty People and consult the Series Index. Prarie Chickens was also one of Hal Roach's "streamlined features," a series of short comedies intended to fill the second half of a double bill. The first streamlined feature was Tanks a Million (see below).
