They are believed to live in pine forests and will either curse or bless travelers depending on how they are treated. They are described either as large owls or as feathered humanoid creatures that merely resemble owls. They allegedly build nests by tying the tops of pine trees together.

One myth of the chickharney involves Neville Chamberlain, a former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. According to legend, when he was around 20 years old, Neville Chamberlain worked on a sisal plantation in the Bahamas owned by his father Joseph Chamberlain. The story states that the plantation faced financial failure because Chamberlain angered some chickcharnies by cutting down their trees. The myth further alleges that Chamberlain's Munich Agreement failed to prevent the Nazi invasion of Czechoslovakia because of a curse placed by the chickcharnies.
