Maybe you can find this entry in other, serious, dictionaries

I have a better idea. Do it yourself!
Search for "cipka kura"

If you haven't noticed, this is link to the free dictionary used by polish net scrabble players... Maybe you can find this entry in other, serious, dictionaries but the one thing is its existance and the other usability. And in my opinion it's close to none.

The word cipka mean a chicken, mostly young. Check it out in Słownik Języka Polskiego , PWN.

I know of the word's daily usage in that meaning in Maloposka and South East.

I’m from South East (Podkarpackie) and it’s news to me, I never heard of this before. However this word has been used as bimbo.

However this word has been used as bimbo.

It has, and, as some other words in many languages, the primary meaning faded away while the secondary took over and is now predominant. Nevertheless the meaning is there, whether you heard it or not (I did). Compare to "kutas" (penis/decorative element of some fabric products/tassel)".

I’m not arguing the meaning of the word. It’s possible the meaning was there, but it’s not used in that form anymore.
