It does have a defined meaning, doesn't it? "to chicken (out of something)".
I though it was grammatically incorrect anyway i.e.
(the) (adj)chicken (name)chicken (verb)chicken
misses an "s" either on the verb or the name.
But it could be an imperative form perhaps? As in "coward poultry, get out of there"
Hah, that is exactly what I thought.
