Scots has 'teuk' [t(j)ʌk, tjuk] for the sound of a chicken, known as a
'chickie' or 'chookie' [tʃɪkɪ, tʃʌkɪ,
tʃukɪ] sometimes influencing 'teuk' to give [tʃʌk]  or
[tʃuk].

[BTW: I'm sure I'll appreciate the latest discs of 'AC/DC' ("BLACK ICE") and
'Metallica' ("DEATH MAGNETIC) when I get to hear them on Sky (0110) Planet
Rock
(www.planetrock.co.uk)]

Andy,

I wonder if there's a link from Scots *teuk* to Austrailian English "chook"
for 'chicken'.

Regards,
Reinhard/Ron
