context? I´m convinced that just a little more context would definitely solve the issue (also which style of Spanish you´re aiming at)
Walter Blass Jan 8, 2013:
In Argentina, chicken=gallina, in fact also means "miedoso" or "cagón". But here we are talking of shit ;-)
Paul García Jan 8, 2013:
For what country?
Lots of ways to keep that register for miedoso...

cagón

It's a perjorative way to say someone is a coward.

disagree Yolanda Broad : chicken shit does not mean cowardice. It means of little importance.

Algo de ínfimo valor o importancia

... como diríamos por aquí: "una mierdita".
Something insignificant or unimportant.
Literalmente significa: mierda de pollo o gallina.
Lo considero más válido en una primera acepción, en segunda vale la respuesta de Yaotl.
