If you're feeling cooped up, a variety of chickens...
This issue'sHumour article is aboutchickens so cluck'n in with these.
Yes,Barbara (WVS), it could mean they think you are afraid, although it depends on the context. In a restaurant it may mean that supper's ready, and some people have taken "Chicken" as anickname. Also, it might just be someone pushing your buttons. If someone yells "Chicken" at you, it might upset you, which is exactly what the manipulating button pusher is trying to do – to upset you. As for related articles, there areChicken (coward) andChickenshit, and probably more articles if onelooks hard enough, such asChicken Joke (note the "Duck Joke" on that page). Be well.

Nice comment,Paine Ellsworth. I didn't findYellow stripe down the back, either. Perhaps we need an Idiom-pedia. I know English has uncountable idioms and we have a multitude of them here in Pittsburgh. Guess what "Kennywood's open" means here. There is an amusement park here called Kennywood, but the idiom really isn't really about the park. Also in Haitian kreyol there aren't idioms, there are proverbs that folks quote as idioms. A language learner like myself has difficulty even distinguishing idioms from non-idioms and a reference work on idioms might be helpful.
