gizzardless

Without a gizzard; without guts or innards.

This bird has the distinguishing feature of being unlike any of the grouse family, being gizzardless, having no muscular development of that character, but a membranous sac in its place.

No matter what happened to any one else, Candace had to be pleased: for did not she so manage that most fowls served on mother's table went gizzardless to the carving?

Lacking courage, cowardly.

"Heave harder on that peavy handle, you gizzardless scissor-bill, or I'll put the calks to you!"

If you think you're in pain now, just wait until you see what tomorrow brings, you gizzardless coward.
