Resembling, relating to, or characteristic of a chicken.
Derived from 'chook' with the adjective-forming suffix '-y,' common in English for creating descriptive terms from nouns.
The '-y' suffix is one of English's most productive tools—you can add it to almost any noun to make an adjective ('rain' becomes 'rainy'), which is why speakers can invent words like 'chooky' and everyone understands them immediately!
