Because they have wings but they can't really fly properly,
also they have beaks.

Chickenhead -

"A Stupid Person, Idiot; A Stupid Woman; A Woman that Plays
Men for Money; A Woman Who Gives Head." This word has
various uses, and it is uncertain if one etymology could
apply to all uses. The current usage in Black Vernacular
slang is a woman who gives head or one who plays men for
money. The implication is that a woman would be using sexual
favours or enticements to string along a man and get his
money. Various glossaries hold that the word derived from
the similarity of the up-and-down motion of a woman's head
during sex and the motion of a chicken's head when it walks.
This etymology is probably untrue. More likely, it refered
to somebody with the intelligence of a chicken. Black
Vernacular does hold to it being a female. Geneva Smitherman
defines "chickenhead," in Black Talk, as "Lightheaded, dumb
female."
The word appears in 1968 in the science fiction story Do
Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, by Philip K. Dick. In the
story, the word is used to describe people of substandard
intelligence due to radiation. "He had been a speial now for
over a year, and not merely in regards to the genes he
carried. Worse still, he had failed to pass the minimum
mental faculties test, which made him in common parlance a
chickenhead."
